Summary
"Japan is made up of thousands of islands but artist Florent Chavouet had only ever visited two of them. This... novel is the story of the summer when he decides to know one more--the tiny island of Manabeshima. This speck of dirt in the Inland Sea, off the coast of Osaka, has a total population of 300, and he sets himself the task of recording everything and everyone he meets there in quirky detail on the pages of his sketchbook." -- From cover flap.
