The English Language debut full length novel from Mieko Kawakami, winner of the 2007 Akutagawa Prize. Breasts and Eggs explores the inner conflicts of an adolescent girl, who refuses to communicate with her mother except through writing.

The original Japanese novella sold 250,000 copies in Japan. So amazing it took my breath away. Haruki Murakami
