The Scent of Sake is a vivid and powerful entry into another world.and an unforgettable portrait of a woman who would not let that world defeat her. The sole heir to the House of Omura, a venerable family of Kobe sake brewers, nineteen-year-old Rie hears but cannot heed her mother's advice: that in nineteenth-century Japan, a woman must "kill the self" or her life will be too difficult to bear.
