'Mieko Kawakami is a genius' - Naoise Dolan, author of Exciting Times.
...a sharp and illuminating novel about a fourteen-year-old boy subjected to relentless bullying.
In "Heaven", a fourteen-year old boy is tormented for having a lazy eye. Instead of resisting, he chooses to suffer in silence. The only person who understands what he is going through is a female classmate, Kojima, who experiences similar treatment at the hands of her bullies.
Providing each other with immeasurable consolation at a time in their lives when they need it most, the two young friends grow closer than ever. But what, ultimately, is the nature of a friendship when your shared bond is terror?
'An expertly told, deeply unsettling tale of adolescent violence' - Vogue
