“I hid the preserved monkey embryo from Ichyo in Zue’s wedding chest and hoped never to see it again. Amongst my other presents I had my knife from Hideo, the lychees from Sorry and a cashmere blanket from Iani, my birth-marked stepsister.”

The title of this book is beautiful and quite interesting. I’m fascinated and yet repulsed by the monkey embryo. I think I’ll give this a second look.
My Tuesday Teaser is up over here. Have a wonderful Tuesday!

Ok, you have definitely intrigued me now. I’ve been waffling back and forth over this one for months but the monkey embryo could very well be what convinced me I should read this book!
