Who is Yumiko Watanabe?

Good evening and thank you for tuning in to another episode of Say More here in Sydney. Today we will have an interview with Yumiko Watanabe, whose latest novel, "Forbidden" , won her the Lascelle Prize. This novel has glimpses of her life as the only child of the famous doctors who traveled.all over the world. Ms. Watanabe was born in Osaka, but has lived in places as far apart as Singapore and London. She is here on a promotional tour. Viewers will remember her last appearance on our show where she told us remarkable stories of her life as a young girl. This evening I invite our studio audience to ask her more about the experiences that shaped her career.
