TRACES OF HAPPINESS, LOVE AND FRIENDSHIP: FROM THE LAND OF RISING SUN by sheetal Kamath

Traces of happiness, friendship, and love spread across two stories set in different worlds, bound together by the same quest for meaning, loss, and love. The first story depicts a Tokyo real estate tycoon crushed under the weight of debt, silence, and emotional isolation, as a life once full of power and success crumbles away. His tale is one of legacy and despair, of what remains after everything has faded. The second story explores the unique culture and breathtaking natural beauty of Okinawa—a journey where strangers find solace and comfort in each other’s presence. Despite their different circumstances, the two stories mirror one another through reflections on human emotions, the courage to continue, the pain of loss, and the unexpected beauty of connection. At its core, this book is about human emotions across the many stages of life.
