Description:
Nominated for the 46th Noma Literary Newcomer's Award Ando Jose possesses a narrative magnet. He uses the magnetism of violence and ethics to attract, repel, negotiate, and swirl in inconvenient, disturbing, and dangerous words rejected in the real world—like grains of sand. At a time when all ethics have been overturned and violence is rampant, the emergence of a story about "a journey to remove violence from violence" is a remarkable event. Read it! Set off on your journey! It is you who will be carried along by the journey. --Yanagi Misato Strong irony and a cool prose style. A novel like a surgery to open up our gaze. Not knowing where it would take me, I finished reading it in one night. --Sato Kiwamu Sharp criticisms of capitalism, colonialism, the Ukrainian war, and the massacres in Gaza naturally slip in among the fascinating narrative, structure, and story. Extremely stimulating and liberating. I recommend it to the world, beyond borders. ──Sudo Teruhiko Reading this novel is like reexamining your own sensibilities. A must-read for those who resist inappropriate categorizations such as heterosexism and race. ──Watanabe Eri It is rare to find a work that so thoroughly depicts the strong will to not be confined to a typical story, and the unconquerable malice and revenge. ──Mizukami Aya
