The Nao of Brown

by Glyn Dillon

Overview

"Twenty-eight-year-old Nao Brown, who's hafu (half Japanese, half English), is not well. She's suffering from obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and fighting violent urges to harm other people. But that's not who she really wants to be. Nao has dreams. She wants to quiet her unruly mind; she wants to get her design and illustration career off the ground; and she wants to find love, perfect love"--Provided by publisher.

Editorial Reviews

…lushly rendered, passionately digressive…it's a pleasure to observe Dillon's characters trying to understand themselves.
