Description

Tommy's Sunset is a translation of the acclaimed Japanese novel about the journey of a mother and her autistic child.

Readers experience the range of emotions as Tommy and his mother are routinely embarrassed in social situations and share delight in private moments. As she lovingly describes these characters, Tsurushima ultimately investigates the source of our social responses to people who are in any way different than ourselves.
