[Autographed Book/With Bonus] Iora Ogi: "Her Calotte"

I believe "Her Ossuary" is a work that emits the power of a catalyst, not just for novels, but for "writing" in a broad sense. I sincerely hope that this work will be read more widely and inspire many people.
──Masaya Chiba (Philosopher/Writer / Commentary in this book)

To be able to hand this text, which excited me then and excites me afresh now, to new readers who might not even have known the author's name, feels nothing short of a miracle or sheer good fortune.
──Amiko Enami (Book reviewer / Commentary in this book)

Curated by Saori Kuramoto, Yuuki Takiguchi, and Ryohei Machiya, the [First Archives] series publishes works that should be re-read, selected from novels published in literary magazines and books that are difficult to obtain. The first publication in the series is Iora Ogi's masterpiece novel, which has long been desired for publication as a standalone volume.

"The request from a female announcer who had lost her hearing was to build a new tomb for herself. The title story, "Her Ossuary," depicts her somewhat awkward interactions gradually encroaching upon the protagonist's daily life. "A Lesson for the Eunuch" follows a young man who struggles with reading but dedicates himself to literature, getting caught up in a surreal adventure surrounding a certain "treasure." This collection includes two stories that enveloped readers in shock and awe upon their release, each line a pleasure to read."

Limited quantities available. Comes with an author-signed copy + a chapbook of a new short story written by the author.
