あてどなき脱出: 土山秀夫推理小説集
Shinen no Soko is a psychological mystery by Tsuchi Eiyu that follows the death of a professor's wife through layered testimony. Rather than solving the case in a single stroke, it lets hidden feelings and the truth emerge gradually through the words and memories of those involved.
Work Information
A psychological mystery that approaches a fatal fall by tracing the feelings submerged beneath testimony.
Tsuchi Eiyu's Shinen no Soko is a short mystery originally published in Hoseki and selected for first place in the ninth Hoseki Short Story Prize. It is included in Atedonaki Dasshutsu: Tsuchiyama Hideo Suiri Shosetsushu, published by Nagasaki Bunkensha in 2012 and confirmed as a paper book with ISBN 9784888511858. Searches of Amazon Japan, NDL Search, and publisher-related pages did not confirm a standalone paper-book ISBN for the prize work, so the identifiers here refer to the collection that includes it.
Review Summaries
-
The work is valued for the way it builds truth from multiple testimonies. Its appeal lies less in a flamboyant device than in a narrative that peels back layers of psychology.
