Competition Description

Win a Signed Copy of Sisters in Yellow by Mieko Kawakami!

National Book Tokens is offering readers the chance to discover Sisters in Yellow, a powerful novel set in the narrow alleys of 1990s Tokyo. This gripping story explores female friendship, ambition and betrayal against the backdrop of a vibrant but unforgiving city.

Hana is just fifteen years old and living a fragile life with her young mother in a tiny Tokyo apartment. With little money and no real sense of security, her future feels uncertain. Everything begins to change when she meets Kimiko.

Older and full of confidence, Kimiko brings light and possibility into Hana’s world. Together they open Lemon, a small bar that quickly becomes a place of belonging for Hana. Despite its shabby surroundings and questionable clientele, the bar offers her something she has never truly had before – purpose, friendship and the promise of a better life.

For the first time, Hana feels like a normal girl with a future ahead of her. But in the twisting streets of Sangenjaya, appearances can be deceiving, and the world around her is far more complicated than it first seems.

As the pressures of money, loyalty and survival begin to build, Hana’s optimism and determination will be pushed to their limits in this compelling and atmospheric story.
