Who Is Mr. Satoshi?

De: Jonathan Lee

Narrado por: Steve West

A dazzling novel spanning two continents - and six decades of secrets - Who Is Mr. Satoshi? is a “quietly masterful” (The Independent) work of fiction from the author of High Dive and The Great Mistake.

When his mother dies, Rob “Foss” Fossick - a 40-something photographer whose best days already seem to be behind him - discovers among her possessions a package addressed to a “Mr. Satoshi”. Tasked with locating this mysterious figure from his mother’s past - and with the urging of his agent, keen for him to return to work - Rob travels to Japan. There, with the help of a love hotel receptionist, he follows Mr. Satoshi’s trail from the bright lights of Tokyo to the northern city of Sapporo, where he must come to terms with his family’s ghosts - and his own.

Definitely recommended

Although I felt the resolution seemed like a drawn-out epilogue, Steve West really brought the story to life, making it a great use of a credit.

... and what's missing from this story line?

It was different enough that I listened to the end, but was disappointed by the weak resolution. Very ho hum. Might not have listened to the whole thing if someone other than Steve West had read it. He's super fabulous.
