パレード by 吉田修一 is a work that follows young people sharing an apartment in Tokyo and gradually reveals the unease beneath their casual closeness.

Five lives seem lightly connected, until the room they share begins to show its hidden fracture.

泳ぐのに、安全でも適切でもありません by 江國香織 is a work that collects stories of women who hesitate over life but not over love, tracing desire, pain, and emotional risk.

Ten women step into love even when life itself offers no safe water.
