A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Academy Award-winning anime master Hayao Miyazaki's favourite childhood book and the inspiration behind the Studio Ghibli film

*In How Do You Live?, Copper, our hero, and his uncle are our guides in science, in ethics, In thinking. And on the way they take us, through a school story set in Japan in 1937, to the heart of the questions we need to ask ourselves about the way we live our lives' - from the foreword by NEIL GAIMAN

'Not easily forgotten'

THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW

'Like the best Miyazaki films, the lessons are often deceptively simple, but they have implications for every person who comes of age through adversity' VULTURE
