"It is a wonderful debut work that depicts the rediscovery of a lost love with a delicate and gentle writing" -- The Post.
I am Marcellus. Mizu Dako who lives in the aquarium. Nearly 1300 days have passed since I was trapped here. People don't know -- I observe people and understand the language. Actually, I can get out of the aquarium. Night walks in the aquarium are a secret hobby. One night, when I was caught in a predicament while wandering from an unexpected incident, I was found by cleaner Tova. I became a friend. As I spend days with Tova, a lonely woman who lost her son 30 years ago, I realize -- a truth about her family. It is my heart-warming debut work that has sold over one million copies in the US.
