He was a student of the great novelist Soseki Natsume, who lavishly praised the “freshness and dignity” of Naka’s prose and encouraged the first publication of The Silver Spoon.

It is a regular love story but not so regular narration as it is relayed directly by a huwoman brain that invariably cannot remain simple. The conversation between this girl, the protagonist, and the boy she loves is typical like any modern-day love story, but the parallel conversation she is having between her heart and brain is rather unique. The story weaves both these conversation together and proceeds to a point when the decision to marry for love or to marry for honor can no longer be avoided. She questions if love is actually what everyone claims it is or is it just a figment of imagination. The suspense in the story is as predictable as a womans mind, which follows a pattern but denies its path. Like all relationships, this story also follows a predictable journeyadmiration, fondness, admittance, love, dependence, expectation, complaint, compliance, and immediately after, more complaint. However, whether the two settle in love or in an arranged settlement is for the reader to find out.

She’s a successful restaurant owner and devoted wife who has her life all figured out. Her serenity is shattered when she gets the call informing her of her mother’s fate, and she finds herself set on a course of reconciliation with her past. With her dutiful husband in tow, Remlee embarks on a journey back to her hometown to deal with the fallout of her mother’s medical misfortune.

It is only when she begins to let go of the past that she is able to escape it and move on into a brighter future with what family she has left.
