¡Tunnel No Mori 1945
¡Kakuno Eiko / Cho
Description
[Machine Translation] The year is 1945. A young girl is fighting the world alone. In the midst of the Pacific War, Iko's mother dies when she is very young, and she and her newborn brother are evacuated to a small village in Chiba, Japan, because she does not fit in with her new mother. In a large, dark forest near their home, they hear a rumor that a deserter has committed suicide. The unbearable loneliness and hunger overtake them like a forest of tunnels, and when they are about to be crushed, Iko follows the shadow of a soldier into the forest... Eiko Kadono, the author of "The Witch's Delivery Service," has drawn from her own war experiences to create this beautiful, pitying, and gem of a story.
