In Tokyo, 16-year-old Nao has decided there's only one escape from her aching loneliness and her classmates' bullying. But before she ends it all, Nao first plans to document the life of her great grandmother, a Buddhist nun who's lived more than a century. A diary is Nao's only solace—and will touch lives in ways she can scarcely imagine. Across the Pacific, we meet Ruth, a novelist living on a remote island who discovers a collection of artifacts washed ashore in a Hello Kitty lunchbox - possibly debris from the devastating 2011 tsunami.

Quite incredible
Revisado: 02-19-24
“A Tale for the Time Being” is quite incredible. It is the best-read book I’ve ever listened to, with each character's personality coming alive as they speak. The book has an intriguing plot encompassing Zen philosophy, nature factoids, community, relationships, suicide, kindness and torture, fluidity of time and intention… and so much more. I'm tempted to listen all over again to catch some of the nuance that flew over my head this first time.
