✅ Summary :

Fault Lines by Emily Itami is a debut novel that offers a sharp, witty, and emotionally resonant exploration of identity, desire, and the constraints of modern womanhood. Set in contemporary Tokyo, the story follows Mizuki, a seemingly content housewife with a successful husband, two children, and a comfortable life. Beneath this facade, however, she feels invisible and unfulfilled, yearning for the freedom and passion of her past. When she meets Kiyoshi, a charismatic restaurateur, Mizuki embarks on an affair that reawakens her sense of self and forces her to confront the dualities in her life—between duty and desire, tradition and individuality. The novel delves into the complexities of marriage, motherhood, and personal freedom, all set against the vibrant backdrop of Tokyo.
