Lili es una mujer de treinta y cinco años que vive con Yukio, su marido, a quien hace tiempo que no ama. Haruna, su mejor amiga, está enamorada de Yukio desde que lo conoció, y Lili sospecha que ambos la engañan, pero decide no hacer nada al respecto. Una noche conoce a Akira, un hombre más joven que ella, con el que inicia una relación. Las historias de los cuatro amantes se entrelazan sutilmente en esta novela, en la que Hiromi Kawakami, con su prosa sensual y concisa, nos invita a reflexionar acerca de la soledad y la naturaleza de las relaciones humanas.
