‘Lush storytelling, with a liberal dusting of South American
magical realism and a multigenerational narrative sweep . . . The
Japanese Lover has all the ingredients of classic Allende: love,
secrecy, fate; stories within stories; the arc of history; and a
certain robustness and ability for reinvention on the part of her
characters’

‘A magical and sweeping tale . . . remarkable . . .
heartbreaking’
