This book title, Sweet Bean Paste, ISBN: 9781786071958, by Durian Sukegawa, Alison Watts, published by Oneworld Publications (November 14, 2017) is available in paperback. Translated into English for the first time, Durian Sukegawa’s beautiful prose is capturing hearts all over the world. Sweet Bean Paste is a moving novel about the burden of the past and the redemptive power of friendship. She begins to teach him her craft, but as their friendship flourishes, social pressures become impossible to escape and Tokue’s dark secret is revealed, Tokue makes the best sweet bean paste Sentaro has ever tasted. Into his life comes Tokue, an elderly woman with disfigured hands and a troubled past. With only the blossoming of the cherry trees to mark the passing of time, he spends his days in a tiny confectionery shop selling dorayaki, a type of pancake filled with sweet bean paste. He has a criminal record, drinks too much, and his dream of becoming a writer is just a distant memory.
