  • "When documentary maker Jane Takagi-Little finally lands a job producing a Japanese television show that just happens to be sponsored by an American meat-exporting business, she uncovers some unsavoury truths about love, fertility, and a dangerous hormone called DES. Soon she will also cross paths with Akiko Ueno, a beleaguered Japanese housewife struggling to escape her overbearing husband. And the battle with 'big beef' will be on in earnest. Ruth Ozeki's much-loved debut novel, winner of the Kirayama Prize for Literature of the Pacific Rim, represents the entertaining face of ecolog."@en

  • "Jane est une Américaine indépendante qui maîtrise sa vie, ses amours, son travail. Akiko, femme au foyer, vit dans la banlieue de Tokyo. Au cours d'une campagne de promotion de la viande américaine au Japon, Jane va découvrir la vérité sur la compagnie qui l'emploie et changer le cours de la vie d'Akiko."

  • "Jane Takagi-Little, by trade a documentary filmmaker, by nature a truth seeker, is "racially half," Japanese and American, and, as she tells us, "neither here nor there..." Jane is sharp-edged, desperate for a job, and determined not to fall in love again. Akiko Ueno, a young Japanese housewife, lives with her husband in a bleak high-rise apartment complex in a suburb of Tokyo. Akiko is so thin her bones hurt, and her husband, an ad agency salaryman who wants her to get pregnant, is insisting that she put some meat on them - literally."
  • "Het produceren van een serie t.v.-commercials waarmee een Amerikaans vleesbedrijf de Japanse markt wil veroveren, laat de nodige sporen na in de levens van veel mensen die bij de productie betrokken zijn."
