"A love letter to those who've always felt out of step with the world." —Mikki Brammer, bestselling author of The Collected Regrets of Clover

A deeply moving story about the unexpected bond between a woman who has fled her hard Tokyo life for a seaside village and a young boy who cannot speak.


When Kiko escapes her grim life in Tokyo for a rural village by the sea, the locals can't help but question her intentions. Rumors start to fly and wariness spreads. Except nothing can be more painful than where Kiko came from. Then, one day, Kiko stumbles across a boy who cannot speak. He’s shy and timid, a little wary himself. But when Kiko shares with him the tale of the 52-hertz whale—a creature whose voice rings through the vastness of the sea, but who cannot be heard, no matter how loud it sings—the boy lets her in on his own story, revealing the moment that he stopped singing and launching them on a journey to reclaim the boy’s voice—and in the process, recover what it means to be heard.

Devastatingly tender and filled to the brim with humanity, The Woman, The Boy, and The Whale is a nuanced, heartfelt story of hope, survival, and the life-changing force of connection, and the incredible masterpiece that launched Sonoko Machida as an internationally bestselling author.

批評家のレビュー

"This gripping story of survival reminds us that friendship between strangers is sometimes all that stands between a life of terror and a life of joy. You don't read this novel, you feel it." —Simon Van Booy, bestselling author of Sipsworth

"A love letter to those who've always felt out of step with the world, The Woman, the Boy, and the Whale tackles difficult themes with heartfelt tenderness and gentle irreverence. Sonoko Machida’s empathetic rendering of her characters reminds us that everyone, flawed as they may appear, deserves compassion." —Mikki Brammer, bestselling author of The Collected Regrets of Clover
