About this book

A Riot of Goldfish (Hesperus Worldwide) by Okamoto, Kanoko. paperback edition. ISBN: 9781843918523.

In early 20th-century Japan, the son of lower-class goldfish sellers falls in love with the beautiful daughter of his rich patron. After he is sent away to study the science of goldfish breeding, with strict orders to return and make his patrons fortune, he vows to devote his life to producing one ideal, perfect goldfish specimen to reflect his loved-ones beauty. This poignant and deft tale is presented along with the story of a pauper from Kyoto who teaches himself to be an accomplished chef.
