Mandatory self-pimpery alert and reminder that this blog is called lying for a living…
Here’s the review of The Dirty Secrets Club from Yomiuri Shimbun, one of Japan’s biggest newspapers, by novelist Shunichi Doba. Because my Japanese is nonexistent, I’m relying for translation on my Japanese literary agent:
He scored 95 points for it (“this is a smash hit!”), praised the fast paced plot and great characterization, and says that the unique profession of Jo stimulates our curiosity and that it’s an exciting read!
Domo arigato!
*End self-pimpery*
高 五!
I have to wait until this weekend before a Japanese speaker will be visiting and can translate. Unless you might enlighten me…
^5! (High five! Thank you Google translate….) 🙂
That is so damn cool. You must get a physical copy of this and frame it. It’s art.
I agree with Dana Jean. Unique piece of art, and flattery, for your office walls!
Congrats!
