Description
Rika Horiuchis new part-time job is to converse with a statue of the Venus de Milo in Latin every Monday, when the museum is closed.
Initially reluctant, Rika starts to enjoy her strange new job: she and Venus talk about everything. They fall in love, and (with the help of a statue of Artemis hunting dog) eventually break free.
This fresh and original new novel from the author of Diary of a Void confirms Emi Yagi as one of the most exciting Japanese writers published in English today.
