Review of my new favorite book 💖
跡を消す means “Erase the Traces”
But what do they mean by traces? It basically means, erase the existence of what the deceased left behind.. especially if the landlord or the police found out about the dead body weeks or months later… Usually that happens when the dead person dies alone.. with no family or friends around.. they only get divorced when the smell becomes so hard to bear.. the smell of a dead body left to rot makes the whole building stinks and there will be so many worms and naturally.. the waste and the liquids of the dead body .. so that’s what they do.. they cleans the houses of the deceaseds and erase their traces.. like these traces weren’t here from the very beginning..
I never expected this book to hurt so much yet touch my heart in so many places.
You can see how cruel the world is..the families who don't give a shit about the dead person.. the angry landlords.. and many many more.
And because I don’t want to spoil you, I will stop here so you could discover the rest of the book on your own.
This is my first time reading a book by this author and definitely won’t be my last time. I absolutely love her writing style and it makes you feel like you are part of the story and feeling every emotion the protagonists feels..
She is also a nurse which isn’t surprising because you could tell by reading this book that she has so much knowledge. A Lot of medical information was explained in a really easy way.
