When Gilbert wakes one day from a dream that his wife has cheated on him, he
flees - immediately and inexplicably - for Tokyo, where he meets a fellow lost
soul: Yosa, a young Japanese student clutching a copy of The Complete Manual of
Suicide. Together, Gilbert and Yosa set off on a pilgrimage to see the pine
islands of Matsushima, one looking for the perfect end to his life, the other
for a fresh start.
Playful and profound, The Pine Islands is a beautiful tale of friendship,
transformation and acceptance in modern Japan.
