Opis

It is March and Spring has arrived at the Nagasaki Peninsula. Keiko and Charlie are settling into their three month old marriage after a 23 year interruption of their original plan to marry when they were attending college. It is now 1978. They had planned to marry in 1956 but fate had separated them. Reconnected and given a second chance, they are working together. Charlie is a gifted artist, a former high school art teacher. Keiko is a reknown musician and teacher of the okoto. As the novel opens, she has retired from teaching so that she can devote full time to composing and planning a concert tour. Charlie is working on finishing his first oil painting to exhibit in a high end gallery in Nagasaki. He soon has a request to do a commissioned painting. High reviews and customer satisfaction seem ready to catapult him into demand in the Kyushu art world. Keiko approaches Carlos Tao of Santa Fe New Mexico with an idea to form an ensemble of Native American musicians to join her Japanese musicians to present a concert of Native American music both in Japan and America. Springtime in Nagasaki brings the citizens out to enjoy the sunshine, cherry blossoms, flower viewing, and romance is in their among the expatriots.
