Hatoko is twenty-five. She writes letters. On different paper, with pencils and pens, pens and brushes. She seals them in envelopes and sends them to their addressees. In these letters are many destinies, many lives, and even what lies behind them. Above them. And her whole life. For Hatoko is a yuhitsu, the last of her kind. One who writes different letters in different handwriting for different people on different occasions. "Tsubaki's Stationery" is a kind of requiem for the handwritten text. The success of this book in Japan is also due to the fact that Ito Ogawa with his book touched on a very sensitive topic for tribesmen. About how important it is - against the background of universal mechanization, computerization, universalization and so on - to preserve in words the warmth of human breath and in letters the warmth of the human hand.
