The Woman in the Purple Skirt (Murasaki no sukāto no onna)
Natsuko Imamura, Lucy North (translation)'You will be obsessed.' — LEILA SLIMANI
'It will keep you firmly in its grips.' — OYINKAN BRAITHWAITE
The Woman in the Purple Skirt is being watched. Someone is following her, always perched just out of sight, monitoring which buses she takes; what she eats; whom she speaks to. But this invisible observer isn't a stalker — it's much more complicated than that.
'Disquieting & wryly funny, The Woman in the Purple Skirt is a taut & compelling depiction of loneliness & obsession.' — PAULA HAWKINS
'Very powerful . . . Reading this book made me feel like I was in an unstable & strange world.' — SAYAKA MURATA
