Description:
A grandson so busy with cram school, lessons, and tutors that he's as scheduled as a VIP. Hearing his grandfather's plea to spend some quality time together, a group of mahjong-playing old men come up with a "brilliant scheme"... This collection features twelve masterpieces brimming with darkly comedic wit, including "Kidnapping Paradise," which tackles an unprecedented abduction case. Following the acclaimed "Weird Laugh Novel," this carefully crafted short story collection represents the ultimate refinement of black comedy. Includes a special dialogue with Natsuhiko Kyogoku, a fellow pursuer of laughter.
