Work Information
A tanka collection that quietly and deeply records family memory and social change.
A volume in the Kadokawa Heisei Kajin Sōsho series.

ISBN, page count, and descriptive text were confirmed on Kadokawa's official store.
Review Summaries
-
Readers value the distance and introspection within the poems of daily life. Even when writing about children and family, the collection avoids relying solely on sentiment and keeps a measured relation to its subjects.
