Even if it's just for tonight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSet in the underground bar and club scene of 1970s Tokyo, Set My Heart On Fire tells the story of Izumi in her turbulent twenties. Through a series of disarmingly frank vignettes, author Izumi Suzuki presents an unforgettable portrait of a young woman encountering missteps and miscommunication, good music and unreliable men, powerful drugs and disorientating meds. Izumi usually keeps her relationships short but complicated, until she meets Jun.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSet My Heart on Fire is a visceral novel about mistaken relationships and the convolutions of desire, about regret and acceptance. Pulsing through the narration is the protagonist's love of music, a vital soundtrack spanning the Zombies, T. Rex and the Rolling Stones as well as underground Japanese psychedelic-rock bands such as the Tigers and the Tempters.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Izumi Suzuki","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56152146313541,"sku":"9781804293300","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/3721\/6069\/files\/9781804293300.jpg?v=1762269565","url":"https:\/\/stripyduckbookshopcafe.co.uk\/products\/9781804293300","provider":"The Stripy Duck Bookshop Café","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
