Set My Heart on Fire by Izumi Suzuki (English) Paperback Book

Description: Set My Heart on Fire by Izumi Suzuki, Helen O'Horan Estimated delivery 4-14 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description The first novel from Izumi Suzuki to be published in English: a candid, intimate exploration of passion, music and transgression Publisher Description A young woman named Izumi, details her turbulent twenties in thirteen disarmingly candid vignettes, set in the underground bar and club scene of 1970s Tokyo.Seamlessly delivering ennui alongside snark, and tragedy nose-to-nose with apathy, Set My Heart on Fire is singular representation of young womanhood, missteps and miscommunication, and music, men and meds. With chapters titled for tracks by The Zombie, The Supremes and the Rolling Stones, as well as songs by underground Japanese bands of the time, the music of the 1960s and 1970s permeates the story.There are distinct traces of the fraught tenderness in Marguerite Duras The Lover, and the raw, decadent post-war generational dissolution of Ryu Murakamis Almost Transparent Blue. But Suzukis novel is carried by her own singular charm and wit, which will be readily recognised and adored by readers of her short stories. Author Biography Izumi Suzuki (1949–1986) was a countercultural icon and a pioneer of Japanese science fiction. She worked as a keypunch operator before finding fame as a model and actress, but it was her writing that secured her reputation. She took her own life at the age of thirty-six.
