This autobiographical reminiscence describes the wanderlust of the author’s grandfather, who is torn between love for his native Japan and for California. Missing one place while in the other, the grandfather is always longing to be where he isn’t. The grandson inherits his grandfather’s love of travel, and like him, longs to be in both places at the same time. Soft-hued paintings decorate this quiet testament of love for both family and place.
