The Hunting Gun

Shawn Mooney sent me this book all the way from Tokyo as part of Litsy Valentine's Day book exchange.

Today I picked this book from my sky-high TBR, and I am in love with this author 💖

Exquisite is the one word I'd use to describe this book. Such beautiful prose; so much is revealed in just few pages. The translation work is amazing it's poetic. Imagine reading it in Japanese!

I am going to get this book in Japanese. I have already purchased "Bull Fight" and "Life of a Counterfeiter" from the Book Depository. Inoue stated in his foreword that "The Hunting Gun" and "Bull Fight" are the works that he had strong attachment to. When the author stated it that way, you must oblige.
