Description

When I Whistle is a rich and absorbing novel set in two contrasting worlds: the world of prewar Japan, and the contemporary world of a large hospital with its professonal rivalries. Ozu, a middle-aged business man, has a chance encounter that evokes haunting memories. The stark counterbalance is his son Eichi, a young resident surgeon with an ambitious and materialistic obsession to depose his rivals. As the story unfolds, the past and the present gradually converge in a powerful and moving climax.
