TEA (10 of 10)

Author: Eleanor Bluestein
Genre: Short Story Collection

Personal Rating: 4/5 (very good)
(ss) Yearly Count: 25



A seventeen year old is strongly rejecting the idea of a marriage that her father has arranged. She seeks guidance from her older brother.

This was a little peculiar, but Ayama Na has its oddities anyway, so it was no surprise. I liked the path in which the story took and found the brother to have a simple idea, but profound and odd in its execution. This story provided me a solid ending - one that was interesting to watch develop.
