Description
Traveling Practice follows a novelist and his spirited niece as they embark on a walk across the Japanese countryside during the last days before the pandemic. Through their journey, the book masterfully explores themes of memory and the power of writing to capture fleeting moments and preserve them.
Nominated for the prestigious Akutagawa Prize and winner of both the Mishima Yukio Prize and the Tsubota Joji Literature Prize, Traveling Practice’s quiet, reflective tone and focus on the characters’ inner lives elevate it beyond a simple travel story, establishing it as a significant work of literary fiction.
Advance Praise
"Landscapes, time, and memories exist because people commit them to words. Even if they are as fleeting as ashes, Norishiro is determined to document them in this travelogue. The result is a novel that seeks to explore the very essence of literature."
—Yoko Ogawa, author of The Memory Police
Winner of the Mishima Yukio Prize
Winner of the Tsubota Joji Literature Prize
