  1. 1. In This Corner Of The World by Fumiyo Kouno

    A quiet, intimate portrait of a young woman who moves to a provincial port town and struggles to keep everyday life intact as the Second World War draws closer and eventually engulfs her world; through small domestic details, creative scrap-making, and the rhythms of family and neighborhood, the narrative shows how scarcity, air raids, conscription, and loss reshape ordinary routines and relationships, while highlighting resilience, memory, and the human cost of conflict on civilians.
