Bestselling author Gail Tsukiyama has garnered extraordinary critical acclaim for her past novels, including Women of the Silk, Samurai’s Garden, and Dreaming Water. She has legions of fans among booksellers and readers alike and is a favorite of reading groups across the country. But as popular as her previous books have been, her latest work, The Street of a Thousand Blooms, promises to exceed expectations. A sweeping generational saga of love and war, family and tradition set in Japan before and after World War II, it is already receiving fabulous early praise. Tsukiyama is the recipient of the Academy of American Poets Award and the PEN/Oakland Josephine Miles Award.
