With the publication of Kitchen, the dazzling
English-language debut that is still her best-loved book, the
literary world realized that Yoshimoto was a young writer of
enduring talent whose work has quickly earned a place among the
best of contemporary Japanese literature. Kitchen is an
enchantingly original book that juxtaposes two tales about mothers,
love, tragedy, and the power of the kitchen and home in the lives
of a pair of free-spirited young women in contemporary Japan.
Mikage, the heroine, is an orphan raised by her grandmother, who
has passed away. Grieving, Mikage is taken in by her friend Yoichi
and his mother who is really his cross-dressing father Eriko. As
the three of them form an improvised family that soon weathers its
own tragic losses, Yoshimoto spins a lovely, evocative tale with
the kitchen and the comforts of home at its heart.
In a whimsical style that recalls the early Marguerite Duras,
"Kitchen" and its companion story, "Moonlight Shadow," are elegant
tales whose seeming simplicity is the ruse of a very special writer
whose voice echoes in the mind and the soul.
