Seller's Description:
Very Good. Inscribed by Author(s)The wraps are slightly shelf rubbed. no inscriptions, soundly bound. the name of the person to whom the book was inscribed has been crossed through. [J.K.
The book explores the pathological loyalty woven into the relationship between a Chinese/British young man and his Japanese martial arts teacher. We see the final decisions of the two friends as the horrific historical aggression of the Japanese into both China and Malaya during WW 2 threatens the well-being of the families of both men.
The Gift of Rain is an unsettling exploration about the complex nature of good and evil, destiny and choice.
