About the author
Banana Yoshimoto
235 books9,260 followersBanana Yoshimoto (よしもと ばなな or 吉本 ばなな) is the pen name of Mahoko Yoshimoto (吉本 真秀子), a Japanese contemporary writer. She writes her name in hiragana. (See also 吉本芭娜娜 (Chinese).)
Along with having a famous father, poet Takaaki Yoshimoto, Banana's sister, Haruno Yoiko, is a well-known cartoonist in Japan. Growing up in a liberal family, she learned the value of independence from a young age.
She graduated from Nihon University's Art College, majoring in Literature. During that time, she took the pseudonym "Banana" after her love of banana flowers, a name she recognizes as both "cute" and "purposefully androgynous."
Despite her success, Yoshimoto remains a down-to-earth and obscure figure. Whenever she appears in public she eschews make-up and dresses simply. She keeps her personal life guarded, and reveals little about her certified Rolfing practitioner, Hiroyoshi Tahata and son (born in 2003). Instead, she talks about her writing. Each day she takes half an hour to write at her computer, and she says, "I tend to feel guilty because I write these stories almost for fun."

3.5⭐️/ 5⭐️
這是一本由3部短篇小說結合成的書，3位主角所愛的人都過身了，主題環繞著面對死亡和孤獨，作者的文筆細膩是鼎鼎有名，描寫不同人物的內心痛苦掙扎，又如何努力生存下去。生死一直都是我很喜歡的話題，但這部被評為療癒系列的書，在我個人口味上有點太矯情了，就是從頭到尾都有種苦情女主角找救贖的感覺，而且短篇小說來說，描繪的內心戲篇幅越多，劇情就越難以推進，剛開始對角色有感情的時候 ，這篇就完結了，可能把它寫成3篇獨立小說我會比較喜歡
