Abstract

A collection of far-fetched masterpieces by the genius Karen Hen, who died young. This legendary collection of works depicting the boundary between reality and fantasy returns with color manuscripts and rough illustrations never before published in book form! Recommended by Uo Yutaka (manga artist), TaiTan (rapper), Nashi (horror author), and Nyalra (author)!
The inability to fully reveal, the hope hidden in resignation, the simply entertaining conversations disguised as absurd—the true nature hidden by the gravity of the 1990s—is now illuminating the manga world once again, as a bright ray of sunlight pierces the apocalyptic feeling of the end of the century, shaking off the pretentious subculture crowd! —Uo Yutaka (manga artist)
A record of the absurd daily life that never seems to end, even though you want it to end quickly. Like "Wednesday Downtown," where the revelation never comes. —TaiTan (rapper)
Without resignation or regret, his manga depicts the despair that simply exists, like a landscape. I really love the world he draws. --Nashi (horror author)
A collection of mysterious short stories, as ugly as a flower and as beautiful as an insect. --Nyarura (author)
