Specificatii
Born to a wealthy and powerful yakuza boss, Shoko Tendo lived the
early years of her life in luxury. However, when she was six,
everything changed: her father was jailed, and the family fell into
debt. Bullied by her classmates because of her father's activities,
and terrorized at home by her father, who became a drunken, violent
monster after his release from prison, Tendo rebelled. As a
teenager she became a drug addict and a member of a girl gang. At
the age of 15 she spent eight months in a juvenile detention center
after getting into a fight with another gang. During Japan's bubble
economy of the eighties, Tendo worked as a bar hostess, attracting
many rich and loyal customers, and earning money to help her family
out of debt. But there were also abusive clients, one of whom beat
her so badly that her face was left permanently scarred. Her mother
died, plunging Tendo into a depression so deep that she tried to
commit suicide. Somehow, Tendo overcame these tough times. A
turning point was getting a full-body tattoo with a design centered
on a geisha with a dagger in her mouth, an act that empowered her
to change her life. She quit her job as a hostess. On her last day
at work, she looked up at the full moon, which became a symbol of
her struggle to become whole, and the title of the book she wrote
as an epitaph for herself and her family. The paperback edition of
Yakuza Moon features 16-pages of never-before-seen photos of Tendos
youth, family, and tattoos, as well as a new foreword by the
author, describing her life since the book was first published four
years ago. Emotionally complex and thoroughly heart-rending, this
book is recommended for anyone searching for a more thorough and
personal understanding of Japanese society. Publishers Weekly
