About this ebook

This is the story of a young girl, Shinichi, who was abandoned by her parents and was brought up under the custody of her grandmother. During Shinichi's maturation, the grandmother experiences strange hallucinatory dreams. Shinichi eventually earns a degree in psychology. She meets her future husband, Kaz, a medical student, at the university, and their life together brings them as volunteers to the Kobe earthquake where Shinichi learns of the whereabouts of her mother and half-sister. The grandmother dies of a massive stroke. This story reflects on Japanese culture and travels to many scenic areas and is a testament to the will and strength of a young person.
