Spring Comes Riding in a Carriage: Maiden's Bookshelf
A more intimate and romantic entry in the Maiden's Bookshelf series, this tale of doomed romance brings together the so-called "God of Literature" with the gorgeous artwork of Atsuki Ito, author of A Love-Letter in 26 Characters.

“I can't imagine how wonderful it will be to die...”

Confined to a sickbed by the seaside, a woman waits for death as her husband nurses her. This is no tragic idyll, however; the space between them is filled with antagonism, fear, suspicion, pain...and love.

Riichi Yokomitsu brings a bitingly realistic sensibility to this claustrophobic tale of love and death, as moving as it is agonizing.
