About this listen

Sixteen-year-old Rei Murata appears to have everything: good looks, brains, artistic skill, and admiring friends. But Rei is a survivor—of loss, neglect, and of self-isolation. Locked away from a world where she felt unwanted, Rei was one of the millions known as the hikikomori.

A chance meeting leads Rei to discover the online world of the Dwellers. Astonished to find her former classmate Sho among their number, Rei is determined to rescue him. Rei learns she must come to terms with her past before she can face her future. For her peers, the barriers of class and society must fall, so they, too, can move forward.

No one is ever lost, Rei believes. She hopes to lead Sho, and the rest to their moment in the sun.
