Renowned Goethe scholar Hiroba Toitsu comes across a famous Goethe quote he had never heard of during a family dinner. Searching for the words written on a tea bag tag, he pored over a vast amount of original texts and recalled memories from his years of research. Toitsu's journey through a single word raises profound questions about what it means to create, and leads the reader to an unexpected revelation. An academic adventure story written by a young talent! Winner of the 172nd Akutagawa Prize
