When he hears her favourite Beatles song, Toru Watanabe recalls his first love Naoko, the girlfriend of his best friend Kizuki. Immediately he is transported back almost twenty years to his student days in Tokyo, adrift in a world of uneasy friendships, casual sex, passion, loss and desire - to a time when an impetous young woman called Midori marched into his life and he had to choose between the future and the past.Translated from the Japanese by Jay Rubin.ISBN: 9780099448822
