I loved Kitchen by Banana Yoshimoto and I assumed these shorts would be similar but they really lacked the charm and heart of the characters in Kitchen. I just didn't really feel anything for most of them. They were a bit too short and I just felt sort of talked at. It still had the wistful mudanity of her writing that I love so much though!
