A poignant and engaging novel for all fans of Asian literature.
As the only woman in the office, Mrs. Shibata is forced to do all the "women's" work: answering the phone, taking out the trash, replacing cartridges in the printer, washing the microwave and other people's coffee cups. One day, Shibata gets so tired of all these responsibilities that she announces she's pregnant. Now she can leave work early, manage to go to the store while there is still some fresh produce left and spend quiet evenings at home. She is happy with her new position, but there is one "but": Mrs. Shibata is not really pregnant, and sooner or later her deception will be revealed. Or will she?
