Plot summary
Komori is the mountain village in the Tohoku region where Ichiko grew up, and heartbreak in the big city sends her back to it. She lives there alone, cooking for herself from local ingredients as each season brings them. Summer brings rain and humidity, and she tills the fields, bakes her own bread and grows hothouse tomatoes. Autumn is the season when she pickles and preserves fish and sweet potatoes, and Ichiko begins reaping rice and recalls her departure from Komori five years earlier.
