Kobikicho no Adauchi (Nagai, Sayako 2023)

  A mystery set in the Edo period. 
  A young samurai successfully avenges his father by killing the villain in front of the public in Kobikichō, the actors’ district. Behind this officially sanctioned act of revenge, however, lie many intertwined human dramas. 
  The unexpectedly heartwarming ending left me feeling genuinely happy. A film based on the novel will be released this coming February.   I’m eager to see it.
