Tokyo Genso is a creator who depicts a ruined city of Tokyo with stunning creativity. Here is an ephemerally beautiful world where impossible scenes of the future stimulate the imagination. The charm of these works lies in the fantastical worldview, in which various scenes from contemporary Japan, including Shibuya 109, Shibuya's Scramble Crossing, Asakusa, Tokyo Skytree and Ginza, are reduced to ruins. The ruined Tokyo landscape as drawn by Tokyo Genso is characterized by verdant trees and clear blue skies, giving a sense of natural beauty. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

The world of Makura Kurama is full of darkness and beauty. The owners, guests, neighbors, and other characters that appear in the antique shop suffer from grief, fear, or pain in their minds. The gothic-style costumes and motifs, such as skeletons, dolls, corpses, taxidermy and natural specimens, and of course love, lends a dark, fantastical atmosphere to the stories. But these stories never become an incurable tragedy. Makura Kurama's refined brush work and the sense of hope, of finding light in the darkness, always brings a redemptive element to the stories. This book is the first art collection of Makura Kurama with short stories, comics and illustrations. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror
