Kato Tokiko was born in Harbin a year and eight months before the end of World War II. She grew up listening to the music of many Russians and returned to Shea with her mother, older brother and older sister who survived the postwar chaos. She made her debut as a singer while she was at the University of Tokyo. When she graduated in 1968, she joined the students who boycotted the graduation ceremony and took part in a demonstration. She met and spent her life with Toshio Fujimoto, who was the leader of the student movement at that time. In 2018, the world was shaken by the anti-war and democratization of Viet Nam for 68 to half a century. This book is an autobiography written by Kato Tokiko himself, describing the turbulent life from birth to retirement, her debut as a singer, her marriage and until now through her encounter with songs. Her representative works "Shiretoko Ryojo" and "A Million Roses" contain the hot messages of a fateful era. The background episodes of the historical songs such as "Cherry Blossom Time" sung as Gina in the animated movie "Porco Rosso," Vietnamese song "A Beautiful Past," Korean song "Bongsun flower" and anti-war song "Where did the flowers go" are valuable records.
