Lady Joker, Volume 2

Více o knize

Set in 1995 Tokyo, the narrative explores the lives of five disenchanted men who bond over their weekly horse racing bets. Each character grapples with personal struggles, from a socially awkward welder to a demoted detective, an ostracized banker, and a struggling truck driver and single parent. The group is united by Monoi, a grieving grandfather seeking revenge against a corporation linked to his family's tragedies. His plan to kidnap the CEO becomes a powerful commentary on alienation and the quest for identity in post-WWII Japan.
