Sobre este áudio
Sisters Rei, Kiki and Ai have always had to look out for one another - but life has taken them on very different paths.
Eldest daughter Rei is spiky and sensible, distracting herself with an all-consuming job at a financial corporation in London.
Big-hearted Kiki is a single mother in Tokyo, juggling the demands of her young son and the cantankerous elderly residents of the retirement home she works in.
The free-spirited youngest, Ai , is a Japanese pop idol who has found fame and fortune but lost herself along the way. When Ai is embroiled in a scandal and thrust into the spotlight, Rei must pick up the pieces of her family once more.
Over the course of a summer in their childhood home on the Japanese coast, the sisters reunite with their sharp-tongued grandmother, entertain Kiki's irrepressible son and silently worry about Ai, carefully avoiding the subject of their mother's death fifteen years before. But silence between sisters can only last for so long . . .
Transporting, funny and moving, Kakigori Summer is an uplifting exploration of love and loss, sisterhood and family, the stories we tell ourselves about the past and how they determine our future.©2025 Emily Itami (P)2025 Orion Publishing Group Limited
Resumo da Crítica
I adore Emily Itami's writing . . . Kakigori Summer is a novel about belonging, both within a family and the wider world, and I loved retreating into its cocoon of sibling humour as the sisters briefly stepped back to discover their place in it. Cosy, dreamy, although you're never too far from a line that's sharply astute (FLORENCE KNAPP, author of THE NAMES)
The writing is just beautiful as is the way Emily captures place . . . I was on that beach with them and the way Emily makes you feel those sweet moments of joy when the sisters are together is just perfection (GEORGINA MOORE, author of THE GARNETT GIRLS)
I loved Kakigori Summer . . . The sisters felt completely real, my sympathies finely balanced between all three of them and their different internal struggles were beautifully and poignantly evoked . . . I loved the well-crafted prose, the distinctive, slightly acerbic turns of phrase . . . joyful and uplifting too: the romantic and hopeful ending felt just right (KATE MURRAY-BROWNE, author of ONE GIRL BEGAN)
A sensory journey through a summer on the Japanese coast and into the very corners of the hearts of sisters Rei, Kiki and Ai. It's wonderful (KATE SAWYER, author of THIS FAMILY)
Deliciously acerbic and very funny. This is the most perfect book to see you through your own summer and I couldn't have loved it more (MARIANNE LEVY, author of DON'T FORGET TO SCREAM)
This novel had me hooked from the first chapter. Three sisters, Japan, the complexities of family bonds, love and loss. I got totally immersed in their lives. It's funny and insightful and poignant and uplifting . . . And a rare accolade - the most excellent and satisfying ending! (KAREN ANGELICO, author of EVERYTHING WE ARE)
Itami's voice is sharp, funny, and deeply empathetic, weaving together wit and poignancy in a character-driven narrative that feels fresh, heartfelt, and painfully real (Booklist)
