Though the text is all in Japanese there are some amazing photos throughout. – Paul Page
A deaf 92-year-old woman owns a hearing aid called an ear trumpet, similar to an angel’s ringing trumpet, given to her by her best friend. Using it, she eavesdrops on family conversations and is eventually sent to a strange nursing home.
There she encounters bizarre events, natural displacements, and forms friendships with others who share their inspiration. Alongside a semi-beast family, they invoke the Holy Grail in an attempt to restore femininity to a masculine political society shaping the modern world.
Text is entirely in Japanese. A highly desirable collector’s edition valued both for its literary importance and its remarkable photographic content.
