From the bestselling author of Strange Weather in Tokyo, a novel that moves between Japan past and present to tell a time-bending story about desire and destiny. Having married her childhood sweetheart, Riko now finds herself trapped in a relationship that has been soured by infidelity. One day, by chance, she runs into her old friend Mr Takaoka, who offers friendship, love, and an unusual escape: he teaches her the trick of living inside her dreams. And so, each night, she sinks into another life: first as a high-ranking courtesan in the 17th century, and then as a serving lady to a princess in the late Middle Ages. As she experiences desire and heartbreak in the past, so Riko comes to reconsider her life as a 21st century woman, as a wife, as a mother, and as a lover, and to ask herself whether, after loving her husband and loving Mr Takaoka, she is now ready for her third great love.

I have zero pity for these men

I really love the whole concept of living a whole different life in your dreams and how the different lives and stories intertwine. The overlapping of characters and plot points is done very well and always left me guessing for new connections. Also, the way the characters just accept things is making the story feel "real" for some reason (the story doesn´t have to explain it, real life doesn´t work like that either...).
Overall a very good and rewarding read!
