Descripción
Kevin didn't move to Tokyo to find himself. He moved there to lose himself completely — and business is booming.
Freshly single, perpetually hungover, and fluent in a Japanese dialect he picked up in the countryside bars of Fukushima, Kevin teaches English by day and chases every strange, glittering, gaijin-shaped adventure Tokyo has to offer by night. Between yakuza drinking buddies, a magic-mushroom fueled turtle feeding frenzy in a cherry-blossom park, and a fling with a co-worker that refuses to stay uncomplicated, he's building a life out of chaos, curiosity, and an unshakable belief that the best stories happen when you say yes to the wrong thing.
But somewhere beneath the beer, the bravado, and the Bob Marley karaoke, Kevin is slowly becoming someone he doesn't quite recognize — a Tokyoite. And the city isn't done with him yet.
Equal parts hilarious, filthy, and unexpectedly tender, The Tokyoites is a rollicking expat odyssey through the neon backstreets of Tokyo — for anyone who's ever wondered what happens when you throw yourself headfirst into a foreign life and never quite come up for air.
