Preview — Flight Paths of the Emperor by Steven Heighton
Set mainly in the psychologically insulated communities of expatriate teachers in Osaka, Japan, these fourteen stories seek to understand issues of national or personal honour, and the problematic importance of family. Heighton also examines subtly related themes, like death, age, marriage, war and poetry, while hinting at autobiography throughout. Sophisticated, passionat...more

Critique basée sur des notes écrites en 2011
Voici un recueil de nouvelles ayant toutes et chacune un point en commun : l'Asie. En effet, Heighton raconte le « clash » entre l'Extrême-Occident et l'Extrême-Orient, le dépaysement culturel des Canadiens anglais et des États-Uniens, spécialement au pays du Soleil-Levant.
Comme dans la majorité des recueils de nouvelles que j'aie pu lire dans ma vie, l'équilibre n'est pas parfait, les nouvelles tanguant entre le captivant et l'inintéressant, entre l'a...more

The book description claimed to be an exploration of the cultural differences between East and West by a young traveller working and studying in Japan. I only made it through the first 80 pages of this book, but that's not what I read! Some of the stories have nothing to do with Japan. In one story the author changed the character's name (I think?) mid-story. Maybe it was a nickname? It wasn't clear and became very confusing. I gave up on this one, which I very rarely do.

Neatly written short stories about Canadians living in Japan. Frequent lost-in-translation moments.

I'm surprised I'm giving this 4 stars. The first couple of stories seemed very clunky and amateurish -- I wasn't sure I would even continue with the book. It got a lot better in later stories.
a great mastery of the word and plot structure. vivid images of the inter-cultural experiences. simple, funny, profound and more in each story.
