## Description

Ms Ice Sandwich (Japanese Novellas) : Mieko Kawakami: desertcart.in: Books

Review: Must must read!! - The simplicity of the book and the story is what hooks you in. It doesn’t start with a bang but grows on you gradually. It’s a book that makes you a little sad and a little happy. There is loneliness and pain, but there is also love, friendship, bonding, and the little things that make life worth living. The naivety of youth and the exhilaration of attraction (if you can call it that, the narrator seems to be every bit confused about it) makes for a heartwarming read. Just like Ms Ice Sandwich, our young narrator too is a bit socially awkward, never knowing what to say and how to behave. He doesn’t fit in, always managing to get by just okay.
Review: Hearwarming tale - Ms Ice Sandwich by Mieko Kawakami, translated by Louise Heal Kawai, marks my introduction to Japanese literature, and it’s a delightful start. Narrated from the perspective of a ten-year-old boy, the story explores his quiet infatuation with a woman he calls "Ms Ice Sandwich" and his growing friendship with his classmate, Tutti. Remarkably, neither the boy nor the woman is named, yet the narrative feels universal and deeply personal. The novella beautifully captures childhood innocence, family dynamics, and tender emotions without ever feeling vulgar. Kawakami’s understated prose evokes warmth and nostalgia, making this a perfect read for anyone exploring Japanese literature or looking for something light yet moving to escape a reading slump.
