The Kanto Files: A Tale of a Woman a Book

"Why they couldn't have said that they went back to Jenny's country still baffles me, why would she have a friend in Moscow, it is so far away from Japan, it is about three or four seas away!" Set in England but derived from Japanese folklore, seven mythological stories set the tone for a boy's life, the life that is overshadowed by a book that his mother keeps. The book sits on their fireplace, its grand posture lingering over the household and the people in it. Will the boy ever know about the book and the secrets, including her family, that his mother keeps?
