Asleep by Banana Yoshimoto, translated by Michael Emmerich [in aMagazine: Inside Asian America]
Original Japanese Gen-Xer Banana Yoshimoto’s Asleep offers a collection of three novellas, each about a young woman disconnected somehow to her present reality, finding relief and release only through sleep. We could all probably use a few more zzzzs, too!
