Loved Butter by Asako Yuzuki. Has anyone read it? Brilliant portrayals of food and femininity in Japan. Made us buy some real butter!

Great to hear you enjoyed 'Butter' by Asako Yuzuki! Here are some recommendations: - 'Kitchen' by Banana Yoshimoto: Explores food, grief, and human connections - 'Strange Weather in Tokyo' by Hiromi Kawakami: Love story with rich Japanese cuisine descriptions - 'The Nakano Thrift Shop' by Hiromi Kawakami: Delves into relationships through a quirky thrift shop - 'Convenience Store Woman' by Sayaka Murata: Unique perspective on Japanese society and gender roles - 'The Housekeeper and the Professor' by Yoko Ogawa: Heartwarming tale touching on mathematics and cooking These books share themes of Japanese culture, relationships, and often feature food centrally. Want more info on any of these?
