Summary
- An adult female with a broken heart poetically describes her bleak life
- An artistically weird illustration mirroring people’s emotions and lives
- A collection of short one-shot stories about life that is complicated yet deep and surreal
Description
Rather more representative of the Nishioka siblings' writing style than Kami no Kodomo, this is a collection of quietly philosophical one-shots that explore the thoughts and feelings of ordinary people in an odd, surrealistic manner replete with atypical and symbolic illustrations. More than one reading may be required if you are to completely grasp the core message behind each of these stories.
