Historia4 out of 5 stars 70
A missionary doctor pines for his native New England even as he succumbs to the vibrant chaos of 19th-century Siam. A post-World War II society woman marries, mothers, and holds court, little suspecting her solitary fate. A jazz pianist in the age of rock, haunted by his own ghosts, is summoned to appease the house's resident spirits. In the present, a young woman tries to outpace the long shadow of her political past. And in a New Krungthep yet to come, savvy teenagers row tourists past landmarks of the drowned old city they themselves do not remember.

Pretty Good!
Revisado: 04-26-25
The book overall is well written and the stories are fine. The last portion of the book seems to just kind of meander until the book just ends. Most of the vignettes are good and if you like seeing how stories fit together for a greater picture, the book does an almost great job of that. Nothing about Clyde seems to fit or matter, but maybe as the farang character that’s kind of a meta commentary. Everything else? Good to great.

Decent Reimagining

As an old school fan of Rokugan, I don’t love that Hoturi seems to be phased out, but Hotaru is a decent enough replacement. The stories are entertaining and interesting, the performance is good as always.
