“Book Descriptions: Acclaimed creator Kaoru Mori's tale of life on the nineteenth-century Silk Road continues. With repairs nearing completion on Pariya's family home and business, her father resumes the discussions to finalize her marriage arrangements. As the prospect of a union moves quickly from "someday" to the imminent future, Pariya finds herself wondering more and more about what sort of man Umar is. Social constraints prevent her from interacting with her would-be fiance, so Pariya must resort to eavesdropping and observing...and orchestrating "chance" encounters when she can get away with it! Pariya can only hope her difficulties in talking to people, let alone the man she is to marry, don't put off Umar before their fathers come to an arrangement.
Crafted in painstaking detail, Ms. Mori's pen breathes life into the scenery and architecture of the period in this heart-warming, slice-of-life tale that is at once wholly exotic, yet familiar and accessible through the everyday lives of the characters she has created.” DRIVE
