Истории за доброто, разказани със сърце. Този нов сборник с разкази е естествено продължение на стремежа ѝ да раздипля пред читателя - пласт по пласт многоликата душа на японската култура и начин на мислене. А когато това е направено с обич, разбиране и преклонение, винаги докосва сърцето. "Сан сан, Япония" е онзи светъл лъч, който пронизва съзнанието, за да остави следа. Всичките над 30 герои в тази книга имат нещо общо - през своите малки или големи истории по един типичен за японците дискретен и добронамерен начин успяват да дадат утеха, радост и вдъхновение на читателя. Страница след страница и разказ ... |
