NP by Banana Yoshimoto

Bananamania has returned in an enchanting novel of uncanny subtlety, style, magic, and mystery that Frank Ramirez of the South Bend Tribune declares is every bit as good as Yoskimoto's first book.perhaps better.

A celebrated Japanese writer has committed suicide, leaving behind a collection of stories written in English, NP. But the book may never be published in his native Japan: Each translator who takes up the 98th story chooses death too--including Kazami Kano's boyfriend, Shoji. Haunted by Shoji's death, Kazami is inexorably drawn to three young people whose lives are intimately bound to the late writer and his work. Over the course of an astonishing summer, she will discover the truth behind the 98th story--and she will come to believe that everything that had happened was shockingly beautiful enough to make you crazy.
