4.0 out of 5 stars A Novel With A Difference, February 27, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Temple Dogs (Signet) (Paperback)
This book is an interesing read, especially for those unfamiliar with Japanese cultures or lifestyles. It is a touching exploration of the situation faced by offspring of mixed marriages. The main plot of the story (as so thought at the beginning) is sidelined towards the centre of the novel as we realise or at least come close to assuming the author's true intention that is to show the transformation or rather the development of certain characteristics in the hero that were never seen before. The style of the novelist ( simple, straightforward and real) makes the novel quite unputdownable. Right from the beginning, it leaves at the end of each chapter wanting more. A leisure read although the gruesome details of fights and killings in the explosion between the Mafia and the Yakuza are quite vivid. the novel proves in the end that reacting only when acted upon is most rewarding.
