Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! Today we look at "A Once Perfect Day for Bannafish" by Mieko Kawakami. This is an imagining of what would happen to young Sybil from the J. D. Salinger story "A Perfect Day for Bananafish." This is an interesting piece with a shift in narration and some themes on recurring events in one's life and how we process memories. What did you think of it?  Translated by: Hitomi YoshioPlaylist for other Japanese Author Discussions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-2-qyfNIMY&list=PLHg_kbfrA7YBwaiZiaRdMaSdJu9ylwVGo Link to Read for Free: https://electricliterature.com/a-once-perfect-day-for-bananafish-mieko-kawakami/Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzdqkkUKpfRIbCXmiFvqxIw?sub_confirmation=1=================================Books or Stories Mentioned in this Video:Channels Mentioned in this Video:Lezlie@TheNerdyNarrative: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVXw-rVWALBklE2syuN4myw=================================#MiekoKawakami#AOncePerfectDayforBananafishTABLE OF CONTENTS:Do you have a Short Story or Novel you'd think we'd like or would want to see us cover?
