A pleasant enough story about two 30 something women in modern day Japan, who both have seemingly little and much in common.
Sayoko (a housewife), worried that her lack of social skills are rubbing off on the development of her 3 year old child, takes a job with Aoi (a business woman) in order to breakout of what she perceives as the same old routines that have steered her life thus far. In intermittent chapters focusing between present and past in turn, some detail of Aoi's background is filled in, clarifying the relative similarity of the the two women in their situations and the roles they inhabit in relation to one another.
I found it an interesting enough read to continue on to the end, although without actually being drawn into either the story or the characters. Rainy day reading.
