M Harmon WilkinsonM. Harmon Wilkinson worked in Japan for twenty-five years as a business school professor, long enough that Japan became another home. Still, he is aware that he never perfectly comprehended the culture, and is grateful for the grace he was shown as atransplant. A sense of respect, fascination, and occasional bewilderment permeates his novels, which examine what can happen when life for a foreigner veers off the rails, or in the rarest of cases, becomes actually dangerous. His first novel, Under Shoko's Bed, was published in 2021. Neyuki is his second novel. Harmon is married, with three grown children and seven grandchildren, all of whom live in America.
