Everything is blurred, like a dream, Like a peep show, wonderful. - From Osamu Dazai's "The Girl" ■ "I am a liar and a monster who poses too much and is dragged down by poses." - "The Girl" (Osamu Dazai) depicts the inner life of a girl who, while wishing to be a simple human being, is ignorant of real life and expands her fantasies on small events. ■ "Denise" (Raymond Radiguet) tells the story of a young man tired of the free life in Paris who falls in love with a country girl. ■ "The Last Time" by Yoko Kusaka, a posthumous work that begins with "To Auntie" just before she takes her own life. ◆Contents of the book...Except for a 1.5cm tear at the bottom of page 107 (photo 16), it is unread and clean.
