Description
A LONG-AWAITED EDITION! The novel by Seishu Hase “The Boy and the Dog,” sold in Japan more than 300,000 times, received the prestigious Naoki Sanjugo Award in 2020. In just one year, nine countries bought the rights to publish this story.
Seishu Hase is best known for his novels about the yakuza, several successful films of which were made in Southeast Asia. “The Boy and the Dog” slightly departs from the author’s favorite theme, touching life stories that stir every one of us: a love that has faded, a deadly illness of loved ones, the rejection of society, poverty. But in this story there is room for an indestructible hope for the best and for the kindness that belongs to a person regardless of upbringing, education, social status, or inner state.
