The image displays a close-up of a paperback copy of the book "Convenience Store Woman" by Sayaka Murata. The book's cover is light purple and features a prominent graphic of a black, fish-shaped soy sauce dispenser with a red cap and a silver-colored tail, appearing filled with a dark liquid. Text overlays on the cover include "INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER" in yellow, and review excerpts from The Guardian, Elif Batuman, Vogue, and Sally Rooney in white and red lettering. A human hand, with light to medium skin tone, is visible holding the book. A portion of a thigh or leg is discernible in the lower-left background, suggesting the book is resting on a lap. The background is out of focus, revealing indistinct dark wooden furniture with carved details in the upper left and a lighter, amorphous surface, indicative of an indoor, likely domestic, environment. The image contains no visual elements to identify a specific geographic location within Modiin-Maccabim-Reut, Israel, or any other city.
