| book description |

Mitch and Yonko havenâ€™t spoken in a year. As children, they were inseparable, raised together in an orphanage outside Tokyoâ€”but ever since the sudden death of Mitchâ€™s brother, theyâ€™ve been mourning in their private ways, worlds apart. In the aftermath of the Fukushima nuclear catastrophe, they choose to reunite, finding each other in a city undone by disaster. Mitch and Yonko have drifted apart, but they will always be bound together. Because long ago they witnessed an unspeakable tragedy, a tragedy that theyâ€™ve kept secret for their entire lives. They never speak of it, but itâ€™s all around them. Like history, it repeats itself. Yuko Tsushimaâ€™s sweeping and consuming novel is a metaphysical saga of postwar Japan. Wildcat Dome is a hugely ambitious exploration of denial, of the ways in which countries and their citizens avoid telling the truthâ€”a tale of guilt, loss, and inevitable reckoning. 'Tsushima evades any label, her fiction transcends gender to focus on the existential loneliness that is at the heart of humanity.' Japan Times
