A collection of novellas about women on the wrong side of the world, by turns bleak and incisively funny. Felicity Savage's LOVE IN JAPAN draws on the author's experience as an expat in Japan to paint devastating portraits of five women grappling with a foreign culture and their own desires.

The Immortals - Adrift in Japan and stuck in a fake marriage, Tamsin dreams of making it big in the music industry.

Good Money - Ruth earns more as a hostess in a Tokyo nightclub than she's ever made in her life. Rule number one: never give a customer your phone number.

The Spirit of Harlem - Shizuka, a young Japanese artist, is starving herself in a grotty Harlem apartment. When you've got love, who needs food?

Going Under - A vacation in China. Crap food, ruined cities, no Internet connection. Can it get any worse for Fay and her husband? It can -- when Fay realizes they're being followed.

Coming Clean - Budding rock star Shanti is a compulsive liar. But when a new guitarist joins the band, she's dangerously tempted to come clean.

From a grotty Tokyo hostess club to the hinterlands of China, LOVE IN JAPAN lays bare the seamy underbelly of the Far East. Better known as a fantasy author, Felicity Savage pulls off her first literary collection with rage and brio.

Length: 360 pages.
