"An Extraordinary Take on our Troubled World!"
The Monkey in Me: Confusion, Love and Hope under a Chinese Sky

In Kavon's second novel, The Reluctant Terrorist: In The Path Of The Jizo (Published March 2011), a Japanese businessman takes a deliberately modest revenge against another Japanese family that damaged his own during the Second World War. His surprising act of terrorism is a paradoxical gesture for peace. We meet again characters from Kavon's first novel.
