“A raw, tender portrait of adolescent misery, reminiscent of Elena Ferrante’s fiction.” —NPR
From the bestselling author of Breasts and Eggs, a sharp and illuminating novel about the impact of violence and the power of solidarity.
Tormented by his peers because of his lazy eye, Kawakami’s protagonist suffers in silence. His only respite comes thanks to his friendship with a girl who is also the victim of relentless teasing. But what is the nature of a friendship if your shared bond is terror?
Unflinching yet tender, intimate and multi-layered, Heaven is yet another dazzling testament to Kawakami’s uncontainable talent.
“An argument in favor of meaning, of beauty, of life.” —The New York Times Book Review
