Tokyo Decadence (Ryū Murakami, 2016)
Fifteen short stories about the “seedy underbelly” of Tokyo, filled with heart and loneliness and a diverse cast of improbable characters. Come for the thrill, stay for the often sweet window into Japan of the 90s. A good intro to Ryū Murakami

The Anthropologists (Aysegül Savas, 2024)
A gem of a book, delightful and enchanting. Unfolds as a series of vignettes in the life of young couple living in a foreign city, as they look for a new home. Simple, sharp prose, beautifully written. Touching and fresh. Wonderful
