Kyoko Yoshida “Suisei no Tonari.～HIMARI to Watashi no Oto no Tobira～”
Coming December 4!
“Suisei no Tonari.～HIMARI to Watashi no Oto no Tobira～” (literally, “Beside the Comet — HIMARI and the Door to My Sound”), the first book by HIMARI's mother, Kyoko Yoshida, will be published by Shogakukan on Friday, 4 December 2026 (in Japanese).
From the challenge of the Curtis Institute of Music and the struggles of mother and daughter in the United States to the stages of the world — a four-year record that could only be written by someone who has watched over HIMARI from the closest possible place.
