General Note
English title: The Japanese lover.
Description
"A los veintidoʹs ąos, sospechando que te̕nan el tiempo contado, Ichimei y Alma se atragantaron de amor para consumirlo entero, pero mientras m̀s intentaban agotarlo, m̀s imprudente era el deseo, y quien diga que todo fuego se apaga solo tarde o temprano, se equivoca: hap pasiones que son incendios hasta que las ahoga el destino de un zarpazo y aun a̕s quedan brasas calientes listas para arder apenas se les da o̕xgeno." -- Page [4] cover.
Description
In 1939 San Francisco, Alma falls in love with Ichimei, the gardener's son, who is sent to an internment camp, but although they reunite, they must hide their love, until in old age her caregiver and her grandson learn about their secret passion.
