Description
About the Book
"Confined to a sickbed by the seaside, a woman waits for death as her husband nurses her. This is no tragic idyll, however; the space between them is filled with antagonism, fear, suspicion, pain...and love Riichi Yokomitsu brings a bitingly realistic sensibility to this claustrophobic tale of love and death, as moving as it is agonizing."--Publisher marketing.Book Synopsis
