岡田寛司 おかだ かんじ honorable mention

A short story by Kanji Okada included in the tenth-anniversary collection of the Ekoda Literary Prize. Using the title's play between having enough and lacking enough, it approaches contemporary feelings of life and a kind of absence that is difficult to put into words.

Between what is enough and what is lacking, the sensations of daily life continue to waver.
