About
A young girl traces her mother's steps all the way from London to Japan to search for the father she never knew.
Hana arrives in Tokyo with only two words in her mind: The Teahouse. She's a long way from home in East London and still fresh from the loss of her mother. But her grief has sent her across to the other side of the world to find out who she is, and for Hana that means finding the Japanese man she has never met, her father with only these two words as clues. Made in Japan is a beautifully woven story of a mother and daughter who, decades apart, tread the same streets of glittering Tokyo looking for that something that might complete them. • A beautiful and poignant coming of age story that incorporates big emotional themes: grief after losing your mother, searching for your biological father, and finding out who you are. • With wonderful echoes of Lost in Translation, Hana is a fish out of water with a twist, her half-Japanese heritage means she almost fits in a country she's never visited before. • SJ Parks spent many years in Japan and her debut novel is a love song to the quirks and beauty of that country.
