The Submarine Sails the Eternal Night. / Beyond That, Beyond the Limits of Imagination. / Interwoven with labyrinth plots and oriental aesthetics. / A masterpiece by a new star of Chinese literature. / "Many of the characters in his work can't keep up with the ever-changing world of the world, but they maintain their mental balance by remaining in their fantasy world. They must reflect people who exist quietly but surely in a corner of Chinese society that continues to undergo tumultuous changes. At the same time, it seems to be somewhat similar to us who read this book." (from the translator's explanation) / "One cold night in 1966, Borges stood on the decks of a steamship and threw a coin at the sea." The title piece, "The Submarine of the Night," tells a story about a boy's fantasy world losing its boundary with reality. The young man who is the main character in "Takematsu Minedera Kagi to Hibi Monogatari" (The Tale of Takematsu Minedera Kagi to Hibi) thinks that the key to his lost parents' home is a USB-type memory, and the home is stored in the memory in a perfect condition. 8 short and medium volumes depict each of the completely different worlds in detail, while building his own literary world with bold imagination. It is the first Japanese translation of a spirited writer who could become a new wave of Chinese literature that resonated with young Chinese people. / CONTENTS / The Submarine of the Night 005 / Takematsu Kagi to Hibi Monogatari 031 / Kotobuki 079 / Saiunki 103 / Toji 123 / Ri In Lake 137 / Sekiha 163 / Musician 181 / Commentary 254
