I wonder what her other books will be like - I'd love to see her write some fiction with elements of Yakuza Moon in it. lienha astuti & bonnie: I agree with both of you, and the fact it’s real, as I said before, is just amazing.

I i also have the same feeling as yours. I caught by the story of how a so young nice girl turn into such a wild yangki. Moreover, it's real. It's great book to whom who has no self identity or never found it yet. Yes...it's open mi mind that as a woman, we also have a chance to change our life and choose the best way in life.

I think her irezumi (tattoo) work is amazing, beautiful and very empowering. I hope her life is better now...it sure as hell couldn't be any worse!

If only second year Japanese Studies permitted leisure time I might have picked it up as well.
