Celebrating the Paperback Release of 'Who is Mr Satoshi?'
Jonathan Lee's debut novel ' Who is Mr Satoshi?' is now available in paperback! I read this lovely book last Autumn. In one sitting! Here's an excerpt of my review: "Central to the story is Foss, a talented photographer who has withdrawn from society; his creative juices in a state of limbo since the tragic loss of his wife. 'Who is Mr Satoshi?' draws Foss from the comforts of his broken down reclusive life in England, and thrusts him on a plane to Japan to help solve a mystery left by his own mothers death." The read more, jump here...

2.The author of "Never Let me go"? Kazuo Ishiguro. I've never read the book and it's not even one I remember from my BnN days although I do remember him from "Remains of the Day" and "Nocturnes"
3. And saki is made of Rice. I've never had it but I did know what it was made of without having to look it up.
And I am actually assuming you don't mind if we look them up because I had no clue about the first two until I did and I think the real point is the drawing, yes? If not then, you can put my name in your doesn't have a clue hat. (lol)
Glad you had a lovely time!!! Time for a drink! Perhaps a Vermouth Cassis tonight... *clink*
Danette, * hair flicks* you, my lovely friend, do not belong in the 'clueless hat'! Vermouth cassis? hmm, now there's a thought! * clink clink* ;-)

And I didn't know the answer to Q2 without googling it. But I did know sake is made from rice.
Sounds like a fun story! Also, glad to see your Milano trip was lovely. :)
:-)
This book looks fab! Thanks for this awesome opp. I lived in Japan for nearly four years and it's where my heart lies :) Here are my answers;
1 The fish market in Tokyo - Tsukiji. Once headed there at 4am after an all nighter, and as a vegetarian it was quite the experience.
2 Never Let Me Go is by Kazuo Ishiguro. I had to read this for my A Level English class and did not appreciate it at all back then. Now that I'm "grown up" I think it's wonderful!
3 Sake is made from rice. Yummy.
