I’ve had to split this into two because of restrictions on email size (it’s the pictures, rather than the text, before you panic), so I’ve roughly divided them into a new/print books round up here and an ebooks/things long languishing on my tbr shelf in “April Reads II” which follows quickly on the heels.
This was really enjoyable! I had never heard of the poet before who lived in kyoto. Was he ever part of kyoto journal? I was really struck by the cover of the book though. Really beautiful cover art. I’ve never read any of Kawakami‘s novels. Somehow they don’t appeal to me. And I also don’t like young adult books regarding the other author although the passage by the same authors was one of my favorite novels I’ve read this year.

I'm not sure if he was involved in Kyoto Journal, though it's a small town so there's a chance. I don't think he's there anymore though.
