They are now in their nineties, and Monica worries about them constantly—especially her grandmother, Yun, who survived two wars in China before coming to the States, and whose memory has begun to fade.

Hagakure, Le Livre du Samurai, est un recueil de pensées et de préceptes sur le code de conduite des samurais, le bushido, rédigé par Yamamoto Tsunetomo au début du 18e siècle. Cet ouvrage est bien plus qu'un simple manuel de morale; il représente un témoignage intime sur les valeurs et les pratiques qui régissaient la vie des guerries japonais de l'époque féodale. À travers des réflexions profondes sur la loyauté, la mort, la discipline et l'honneur, Hagakure cherche à définir une manière d'être qui transcende le simple fait de combattre, pour devenir une philosophie de vie.

Who does NOT seek love, or more abundant love — that glue that binds us to others, that makes us matter to each other, filling, albeit incompletely, the hole where loneliness otherwise abides? Who does NOT accept, albeit with dread, the inescapable truth that they will die one day, that their trip will be over, that their personal horizon will be breached? Who does NOT wonder, amid the hubbub of daily chores, what it all means, what is the big picture beyond local mundanity? Religion works for some. Others—the more scientifically informed among us—recognize the shortcomings of ...

So, on the night of the legendary Dragon Boat Festival, she escapes into ...

About the Book A solar year consists of twelve months. But if a lunar year has to correspond to a solar year, then an extra month is required. This leap month is 'Undecember'. [...] This book represents a month of thirty days, divided into two sections: Sukla Paksha and Krishna Paksha - the Hindu demarcations for the waxing and waning phases of the moon - each comprising fifteen poems for the fifteen days of each phase. These thirty poems convey the same ethos and sensibility of the previous book - being intensely personal and yet aesthetically accessible. The poems continue their play on ...
