🐅 The Moon Over the Mountain by Atsushi Nakajima, illustrated by Nekosuke

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

“The moon shines over the mountains tonight

Yet I cannot sing it’s praises; I can only howl”

This is a short story by Japanese author Atsushi Nakajima, about a man who forsakes his life for his poetry and what becomes of him.

This is my first time reading a Maiden’s Bookshelf story, which collects short stories and pairs them with art. I loved this one. It took my favorite Nakajima story and illustrated it beautifully. Nekosuke did a fabulous job with the illustrations added to the book.

Thanks! I’m quite proud of that collection 😊! Here’s five other books that I’ve been rereading / thinking about recently:

From right to left:

The Victorian Chaise-Longue by Marghanita Laski

Labyrinths by Jorge Luis Borges

Dancing with the Lion series by Jeanne Reames

Lancelot-Grail by unknown, translated from Old French by Samuel N. Rosenberg, Carleton W. Carroll, Roberta L. Krueger, and William W. Kibler
