"Non-chan's Adventure" by Sho Shibata 11th printing, 1979, 850 yen Sho Shibata, who won the Akutagawa Prize in 1964 for "Saredo Warera ga Hibi," serialized this work in "Ningen Toshite" (As Humans), which he launched in the early 1970s with Ken Kaiko, Makoto Oda, Kazumi Takahashi, and others. This novel depicts the turbulent days of Non-chan after coming to Tokyo. It's a used book from about 45 years ago, but I judge it to be in relatively good condition considering its age. #ShoShibata #SaredoWareraGaHibi #AsHumans #KenKaiko #MakotoOda #KazumiTakahashi
