Story
Christine has always felt she is just half: Half American, half Japanese. As a biracial Japanese American who was born in Tokyo but raised in the US, she knows all too well what it’s like to be a part of two different worlds but never feeling as though you belong to either. Now on the brink of adulthood, Christine decides it’s time to return to the place she once called home. So she sets forth on a year abroad in Tokyo, believing that this is where she truly belongs. After years of feeling like an outsider, she will finally be complete. Except Tokyo isn’t the answer she thought it would be.

Questo audiolibro è il primo di una miniserie dedicata al diario di Emmanuel, un diario autentico scritto da un adolescente di cui si sono perse le tracce anni fa; la sua scomparsa risale al 1997, quindi il libro è ambientato nei primi anni '90. Emmanuel è un adolescente irrequieto, incapace di accontentarsi del molto che possiede e con una personalità borderline che lo porterà a fare esperienze intense e disordinate, alla ricerca di un "senso". In questa sua ricerca travolgerà diversi personaggi, tra cui Antonia, la fidanzata del fratello Michele.
