This book has a lot to say about family, old age and marriage. I was hoping it would be like those movies I’d watched last year. It was in some ways and in a lot of ways it wasn’t. The father isn’t a good person. There are some very outdated parts and opinions in this book. A lot of them is to do with minors. I don’t think Shingo owns a ukulele to apologize either. Anyway, I think try it if you can get through that, but I don’t know. It was hard to get through
