Reviews
"From the perspective of a disabled woman who asserts her sexual autonomy unapologetically, Hunchback is a personal exploration of pleasure and an indictment of the ableism and sexism embedded in society. Hunchback might be considered radical by nondisabled readers because it honestly depicts the innermost thoughts and desires of a disabled woman which speaks to the lack of disability representation in publishing. Insightful, humorous, and honest." --Alice Wong, disability activist and author of Year of the Tiger: An Activist " Hunchback is a deadpan account of living in a body at war with itself, but this battle does not ask for pity, nor is this narrative, or the body at its center, fragile: It's full of a force that able bodies can't fully grasp, written in a language that talks both clinically and sexually. It's also uproariously funny, unflinching, and merciless. It's not very often that you encounter this provocative yet so refreshingly honest of a read." --Mariana Enriquez, author of A Sunny Place for Shady People and Our Share of Night "Defiant, subversive, sexy, dark, and full of originality, Hunchback breaks like a shard of lightning through a complacent, oppressive world." --Seán Hewitt, author of Open, Heaven and All Down Darkness Wide "Propulsive, sexy, and distilled, Hunchback is the novel on disability and desire I've been waiting for. Shifting between the minutiae of physical limits and broader structures of ableism, Saou Ichikawa's writing is as narratively gripping as it is explosively insightful. This is an essential book." --Daisy Lafarge, author of Paul "This genre-defying novel plunges us into a world that is so surreal and bizarre and captivating. Filled with dark humor and existential dread, this is a wild ride that teeters on the memorable edge of the absurd." --Weike Wang, author of Joan Is Okay and Chemistry "A forceful and original novel which will leave no reader unchanged." --Nicola Dinan, author of Bellies and Disappoint Me "Unforgettable." --Sayaka Murata, author of Convenience Store Woman, "A brilliant, riveting book that lets us tune into voices we have long kept suppressed." --The Sunday Times (UK) "[A] gloriously transgressive debut." --The Guardian "Audacious, insightful, bold, and--with its critique of ableism--necessary . . . an absolutely stunning debut . . . Some readers might be shocked by this brave novel; others might find themselves interrogating their own ableism." --Kirkus Reviews , starred review "Impossible to forget." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review "Insightful, bold, and provocative . . . Ichikawa's excellent work is wholly relatable for anyone who has ever felt out of place in society and longed to fit in." -- Library Journal , starred review "A masterpiece . . . Ichikawa asks us to see disability with more equitable eyes." -- Booklist "A funny and feminist story of a woman seeking autonomy, meaning and respect." --Ms. "[A] must-read debut." --BBC "An important [and] brave book." -- World Literature Today "Told from the perspective of a disabled woman who asserts her sexual autonomy unapologetically, Hunchback is a personal exploration of pleasure and an indictment of the ableism and sexism embedded in society.

Synopsis
LONGLISTED FOR THE INTERNATIONAL BOOKER PRIZE - A bombshell bestseller in Japan, a defiant, darkly funny debut novel about a young woman in a care home seeking autonomy and the full possibilities of her life--"not only a major achievement in disability literature but great literature period" (Johanna Hedva) "A literary phenomenon in Japan, Hunchback is an extraordinary and thrilling debut novel about sex, disability, and power."--International Booker Prize Judges "Unforgettable . . . a thriller of the body . . . [a] miracle." --The New York Times Book Review Born with a congenital muscle disorder, Shaka spends her days in her room in a care home outside Tokyo, relying on an electric wheelchair to get around and a ventilator to breathe. But if Shaka's physical life is limited, her quick, mischievous mind has no boundaries: She takes e-learning courses on her iPad, publishes explicit fantasies on websites, and anonymously troll-tweets to see if anyone is paying attention ("In another life, I'd like to work as a high-class prostitute"). One day, she tweets into the void an offer of an enormous sum of money for a sperm donor. To Shaka's surprise, her new nurse accepts the dare, unleashing a series of events that will forever change Shaka's sense of herself as a woman in the world. Hunchback has shaken Japanese literary culture with its skillful depiction of the physical body and its unrepentant humor. Winner of the prestigious Akutagawa Prize, it's a feminist story about the dignity of an individual who insists on her right to make choices for herself, no matter the consequences. Formally creative and refreshingly unsentimental, Hunchback depicts the joy, anger, and desires of a woman demanding autonomy in a world that doesn't always grant it to people like her. Full of wit, bite, and heart, this unforgettable novel reminds us all of the full potential of our lives, regardless of the limitations we experience., LONGLISTED FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD AND THE INTERNATIONAL BOOKER PRIZE * A bombshell bestseller in Japan, a defiant, darkly funny debut novel about a young woman in a care home seeking autonomy and the full possibilities of her life--"not only a major achievement in disability literature but great literature period" (Johanna Hedva) "A literary phenomenon in Japan, Hunchback is an extraordinary and thrilling debut novel about sex, disability, and power."--International Booker Prize Judges "Unforgettable . . . a thriller of the body . . .
