Sure. There are many positive salon stories. For instance, a salon that offers free haircuts to the homeless. It's a heart - warming story of giving back to the community. The salon staff use their skills to make those in need feel good about themselves.
It's not easy to say for sure. While there are many Japanese books about New York in general, the specificity of the East Village in 2017 makes it a bit of a long shot. However, if you consider works that are part of a series about Japanese people's experiences in different parts of the world, there could be a chapter or section that deals with the East Village in 2017. You would need to do some in - depth research in Japanese literary archives or libraries.
😋I recommend " Oriental Alchemist " to you. This light novel is a doujin novel set in the eastern fantasy village. It tells the story of an alchemist named Cisari who entered the fantasy village. I hope you like my recommendation.😗
The word "salon" comes from the French "salon", which means "social club" or "social place". In French, the word "salon" was similar to the word "comedy" in meaning, indicating a relaxed and humorous literary form.
In the early 20th century, French writers, politicians, and socialites often organized small social gatherings called "salons" to discuss topics such as literature, politics, and art. These salons became one of the important representatives of French culture and were considered to be the essence of French culture.
Later, the word "salon" gradually became popular around the world and became the name of a place or organization that represented social, cultural, artistic, and other activities. For example, the famous social club in the United Kingdom, Lancashire Salon, and the American social club were all different meanings of the word "salon."
There might not be a very well - known Japanese novel specifically set only in New York's East Village in 2017. However, some Japanese authors who write about the immigrant experience or cultural clashes in foreign lands could potentially have works that touch on this. For example, Haruki Murakami's works often have elements of characters in foreign cities dealing with isolation and self - discovery, which could be related to the idea of a Japanese person in the East Village in 2017.
