When the beautiful Chisako and her lover are found murdered in a park, members of a small Ontario suburb in the 1970s must finally acknowledge certain inescapable truths about one another and the way their community has been shaped by the dark shadow of World War II internment camps. With all the suspense of a psychological thriller, The Electrical Field slowly exposes all those implicated in the murders -- particularly Miss Saito, the novel's unreliable narrator, through whom we gradually discover the truth. Like Kazuo Ishiguru in A Pale View of Hills, Kerri Sakamoto invokes a Japanese sense of the relativity of memory and reliability of consciousness. Miss Saito, middle-aged, caring for her elderly, bed-ridden father and her distracted younger brother, on the surface seems to be a passive observer. But her own disturbed past and her craving for an emotional connection will prove to have profound consequences. A masterful and elegant story of passion, memory, and regret, The Electrical Field reaches deep into the past and into Canada's communal response to war. A reading group guide is bound into this paperback edition.

Simple, elegant, versatile
Premium quality at a reasonable price. Simple and elegant. I have yet to wear this watch without receiving multiple compliments, even in sweatpants on my way to the gym. I took it to a high-end jewelry store to have some links removed, the master jeweler there immediately commented on the quality of the movement and what an underrated watch Tissot makes. (Mind you, he had a table full of Rolexes, AP's and Pateks that he was working on) Very comfortable to wear, heavy enough to feel it on your wrist and light enough where it doesnt not become cumbersome.

Best Swiss auto at this price that isn't a microbrand.
Well built Swiss made piece. Date turns over right at 00:00. Most accurate Swiss auto at this price. Bracelet is decent. Not a fan of butterfly clasps but I can't be picky at this price. Dial is amazing, especially in the sun. Perfect fit for my 7.25 inch wrist.

Tissot Gentleman checks the boxes!
For the price point the Tissot Gentleman Powermatic 80 Silicium checked all the boxes. It is Swiss, 40 mm(good size for average to large wrist), allows for multiple wrist straps/bands and sapphire crystal... one thing to note is the dial color is not grey but anthracite so it is closer to black. However I knew this from Tissot website and this is why I purchased it. I switched out the metal bracelet/band(which I recommend buying) with a brown band....looks great so would a grey. The vendor was reliable and I recommend the watch for purchase. Be careful when selecting dial color. The blue and anthracite are close to black. There is a silver.
