Download or read book So We Look to the Sky written by Misumi Kubo and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-08-03 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This shocking, boisterous novel was a runaway bestseller and award winner in Japan: “Pressingly real . . . In these pages, you will find the lives of all of us” (Japan Times). Searingly honest and sexually explicit, So We Look to the Sky is a novel told in five linked stories that begin with an affair between a student and a woman ten years his senior, who picks him up for cosplay sex in a comics market. Their scandalous liaison, which the woman's husband makes public by posting secretly taped video online, frames all of the stories, but each explores a different aspect of the life passages and hardships ordinary people face. A teenager experimenting with sex and then, perhaps, experiencing love and loss; a young, anime-obsessed wife bullied by her mother-in-law to produce the child she and her husband cannot conceive; a high school girl, spurned by the student, realizing that being cute and fertile is all others expect of her; the student's best friend, who lives in the projects and is left alone to support and care for his voracious, senile grandmother; and the student's mother, a divorced single parent and midwife, who guides women bringing new life into this world and must rescue her son, crushed by the twin blows of public humiliation and loss, from giving up on his own. Narrating each story in the distinctive voice of its protagonist, Misumi Kubo weaves themes including sex, love, the female body, gossip, and the bullying that leaves young people feeling burdened and helpless into a profoundly original novel that lingers in the mind for its affirmation of the raw, unquellable force of life.

Celeste Alexander, the daughter of a poor lobster poacher, dreams of something more than the life she leads cleaning the houses of her wealthy neighbours. When opportunity comes knocking, she leaps at the chance to take a waitressing job in the nearby town of Kentville, forever changing the arc of her life. Soon after arriving in Kentville to work at Sadie’s Restaurant, she meets William Lockhart. An aspiring architect and admirer of Shakespeare, William sweeps her off her feet, and their romance blooms with first-love quickness and intensity. Though they have only been seeing each other for a few months, the lovers envision a future together. But Celeste’s bright dreams of a happy life with William are cast under an ominous cloud when he joins the Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry, a regiment of the Canadian army, hoping that a short stint in the military will help him further his career in the future. Celeste’s worst fears are realized when William is sent off to fight in the Korean War, and she learns that she is pregnant with his child. Set against the backdrop of small-town Canada and the Korean War, this sweeping family saga gives voice with compelling sensitivity and grace to the cascading effects of loss and hardship across generations—and how hope, love, and the enduring power of family bonds can lift people up in the lowest moments of their lives.
