I. Y. Yunioshi is a photographer who lives in the narrator and Holly’s building. Mr. Yunioshi gets quite upset when Holly (who lost her key) buzzes his apartment late at night and asks to be let in, so she starts doing this to the narrator instead. Years later, Yunioshi is traveling in Africa when he sees a wooden sculpture that looks exactly like Holly. He then learns from the woodcarver that a woman and two sick men appeared in town and that the woman struck up a romantic relationship with the carver while the men recovered. During this time, the artist made the carving of her. Yunioshi takes a picture of the sculpture and shows it to Joe Bell, who agrees that it must be of Holly. Joe Bell then tells this whole story to the narrator, who also thinks the carving looks like Holly. This, in turn, suggests that Holly has made her way to Africa after fleeing the United States.
