✅ Summary:

How Kyoto Breaks Your Heart by Florentyna Leow is a pocket-sized collection of beautifully crafted essays set in Kyoto, told through her lens as a Malaysian-Chinese tour guide and roommate navigating work, friendships, and the foreign city she learns to love. Anchored by her abrupt falling out with her flatmate and friend, Leow interweaves vivid sketches of places—old jazz cafés, tea ceremonies, community gardens with a persimmon tree—and the foods, customs, and small moments that build intimacy and then unravel. It’s a poignant love letter to a city and friendship, capturing how heartbreak can turn a home into a memory.
