In 'People From My Neighborhood,' Hiromi Kawakami introduces a cast of peculiar characters living in a world where the mundane effortlessly merges with the fantastical. From a child under a white cloth to a diplomat who fishes in a forgotten lake, their lives are filled with strange occurrences. These twenty-six short stories explore a universe where everyday details intertwine with prophetic dreams, revolutions, and visitations from ghosts and gods, all within narratives small enough to fit in the palm of one's hand.
