so i got my hands on this yoshida akimi book for like, half its original price (second hand, but still looks brand new. amazing!!!!!!)
the main book itself contains a bunch of her short stories, including private opinion and fly boy in the sky. oh, and a couple of illustrations in the back.
^ this is still one of my fave pics hehe. 1989. the middle years really were her peak, huh
^ there's also this but i’ve got no idea what it’s supposed to be. wtf is even going on with shorter lmao. this is what they’re saying:
ibe: gotta show off our good points this time for sure
eiji: but, this caption (?) looks like an anti-aids campaign poster, doesn’t it...
...but actually, what i had been eyeing was THIS!
a mini book with a whole bunch of interviews inside! i don’t think it contains ALL interviews ever done with her, but a select few.
this one esp caught my eye:
apparently, it’s a discussion with (openly gay?) author fushimi noriaki for the magazine "queer japan"
i did a quick flip through the rest and i’m so curious now....... but man i do not have the spoons (or time...) to read atm........ HHHHH........
