乙嫁語り / Otoyomegatari / A Bride's Story
review 1: In v.2 we see the conclusion? of the clan feud that began in v.1 as well as the departure of the participant anthropologist, Mr. Smith. But really those things weren't what made the story for me... Bride's Story really makes excellent women's lit and the stories about bread making, teaching your daughter to improve her embroidery, fertility pilgrimages, etc. give the reader a wonderful peak into the lives of women in multi-generational Central Asian clans. The chapter on embroidery is utterly beautiful and meticulously drawn--every panel is an exciting new pattern! It made me stop and wonder what life would be like if you lived in their village. Fantastic writing!
review 2: I like this series--you certainly won't get tired of looking at the characters--so beaut
... moreifully drawn, but I also find myself a little frustrated. You'll see how Amira is so devoted to her husband, but you don't necessarily know why. Granted, hearing exactly what she's thinking would not necessarily make their relationship more believable, and I do enough attempting to interrupt the tortured looks between the two of them... But, I could go for some flashbacks. Get pumped for some information on that scholar who was hanging around. less
