Nagiko had als kind bijzondere verjaardagen. Haar vader Kalligrafeerde een gelukwens op haar gezicht en haar tante las voor uit 'The Pillow Book'. Dit dagboek van de Courtisane Sei Shonagon uit de tiende eeuw inspireert de volwassen nagiko tot een eigen dagboek.
Nee, helaas is The Pillow Book nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
