This book was heart breaking in its continuing themes of physical abuse, drug addiction & prostitution. To be honest, I was expecting more insight into the Yakuza itself. But Shoko's story is an interesting one, especially in the way she finally turns her life around after so much chaos, despair & loss. This is a quick memoir & a tiny little peek into the Japanese Mafia's way of life.
