Dominique Palmé Volgorde van de boeken (chronologisch)

Autobiografie van een Japanse jongen, die zijn homoseksuele geaardheid tracht te verbergen.

'Hardboiled' opens as the narrator, a woman in her 30s, treks high above her secluded mountain hotel. There she confronts the fears and the sense of loss that haunt her. In 'Hard Luck', we find another female narrator, this one keeping vigil by the side of her sister who lies in a coma.
