A fascinating book about the translator of Anne of Green Gables. The book follows the life of Hanako and also was filled with the history of Japan. I didn't really know much about Japan before reading this so this was a great bonus. A very interesting lady who not only translated Anne of Green Gables but also many other books written by English-speaking authors. She also acted as an interpreter of Helen Keller on a visit to Japan she made.
