The Fox Wife by Yangsze Choo
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I cannot rightly say this has been my favorite magical fox tale, whether couched in historical magical realism or not, but I can say it was a solid tale of slow-burning love, trickery, and even a good helping of mystery.

The plot was slow and meandering but that should be everything you might want in a slow and meandering tale that's more about a lifetime of a fox than it being about the many, many trickeries.

And yet, if you, dear reader, are fond of asian fox tales, I'm sure you'll have a good time with this. There's a lot to snack on, here. Fried tofu or otherwise.
