In the organizer's words:

Be sure to be there when the multi-award-winning Japanese author Asako Yuzuki comes to the BUCHBOX! in Kastanienallee for an exclusive book premiere. Following her internationally acclaimed bestseller Butter, which won the British Book Award, her new book Tokyo Girls Club is finally being published - a novel about obsession, friendship and the slow disintegration of two lives.

Eriko has a prestigious job in a trading company and a flawless life, but beneath the surface lies an all-consuming loneliness. She is fascinated by Shoko, a housewife who lives like a cat in the day and writes about her unusual everyday life as a housewife in her lifestyle blog "Diary of a Useless Wife". When the two meet by chance, a special bond is formed, but it takes a toxic turn when Shoko suddenly stops blogging and disappears. They become caught up in a maelstrom of obsession that leaves a trail of devastation in its wake.

Tokyo Girls Club is a bold novel, gripping and with psychological depth.
