Harajuku Sunday
S. Michael Choi
A young American college graduate travels to Tokyo to find his fortune. There, he joins a fast-moving, high-spending, drug-using crowd of louche foreigners. After one particularly disastrous party, criminal charges are filed, reputations are ruined, and the narrator is targeted by an enraged father who is also a senior US embassy commissioner. Involved with a hooker girlfriend and thoroughly addicted to the drugs with which he once only experimented, the narrator is confronted on his inner-most resources to overcome the greatest challenge of his life.
From the members’ rooms of Japan’s most exclusive private clubs, to the penthouse suites of its ennui-filled glitterati, to the luxury yachts populating Tokyo Bay, HARAJUKU SUNDAY unfolds against a background of the beautiful and damned: a story about modern Tokyo, drug use, and the lives of young Americans at the far edge of the Pacific Rim. Drawing comparisons to the work of the young Yukio Mishima and Ryu Murakami, SUNDAY is Lost in Translation meets Brideshead Revisited in an elegy for a lost period of expat life.
