In the book, Four Seasons In Five Senses, David Mas Masumoto describes his experiences on his peach farm through the fives senses. Each sense has a dedicated part in the book, where Masumoto focuses in on that sense through his various observations and anecdotes the he and his family shares. Masumoto also repeats of theme of slowing down to appreciate the little thing in life, such as a peach, throughout the novel. For my literary analysis, I plan on heavily using this source to showcase any changes and consistencies between Masumoto’s writing style in this novel to Wisdom Of The Last Farmer: Harvesting Legacies From The Land.
