"Hills of Han: A Romantic Incident" by Samuel Merwin is a tale set in the early 1900s that follows a young woman named Betty Doane as she experiences self-discovery and romance while traveling across Japan and China with people like Jonathan Brachey, a journalist. Starting in Kyoto, the story immediately shows Betty sketching a man named Jonathan while outdoors and around cherry blossoms. She is very fond of Japanese culture, but at the same time she feels uneasy about her upcoming trip to China. As she looks forward to her big trip, her sketching ties to her worries about her past life, and the book hints she may have something special going between her and Jonathan.
