The great Fumi Yoshinaga once wrote a short story about a bratty French nobleman named Antoine, his unspoken passion for his uptight and proper butler, Claude, and how their love collides one night on the eve of the French Revolution. The story was such a success that soon she went back and told more about the history of this charming couple, how they fell in love, and how they weathered the Revolution together. With her typical wit and charm, Yoshinaga gives us two volumes of tales to delight, including a love story set in Seattle (check out the cameo of Pike Place Market!), an eerie story set in feudal Japan, a twisted modern romance, and a tragic tale of Claude’s uncle and his own noble lover.
