Description
| A fairy tale for adults by Nobel Prize-winning author Han*Gang. --In search of the most beautiful and purest tear in the world, which can wet everyone's heart. Once upon a time, not so long ago, there lived a child in a village. Just the softness of the wind or the warmth of a human touch would bring tears to her eyes, which were always silently wet. One day, a man in black, who calls himself "The Tear Collector," comes to visit. He is looking for the most beautiful "purest tears" in the world, and he suspects that the child may have them. Han*gan won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2024. [In this book, the author, who is highly acclaimed for his "intense poetic prose that confronts past traumas and highlights the fragility of human life," uses the universal symbol of "tears" to depict the strength of those who live with pain and the hope of finding the light again. Although in the form of a children's story, it is a quiet tale, like a poem, that deeply touches the reader's heart. The Japanese edition is illustrated by *junaida, a longtime fan of Han*gan's work, who beautifully and delicately depicts a fantastical world in which neither time nor place is specified, inviting the reader into the depths of the story. [When one accepts anger, embarrassment, and dirtiness without fear, the tears become truly pure" - a story of quiet hope that encompasses all mixed emotions. A book that gently wets the heart, reaching both children and adults. |

2024年、ノーベル文学賞を受賞したハン・ガン。「過去のトラウマに向き合い、人間の命のもろさを浮き彫りにする強烈な詩的散文」が高く評価される作家が、本書では“涙”という普遍の象徴を通して、痛みを抱えてなお生きる人の強さと、再び光を見いだす希望を描き出す。童話の形式をとりながらも、読む者の心を深く揺さぶる、詩のように静かな物語である。
日本語版の絵を手がけるのは、ハン・ガン自身が長年ファンだったという画家・junaida。時も場所も特定しない幻想的な世界を、美しく繊細に描き出し、読者を物語の深みへと誘う。「怒りや恥ずかしさ、汚さを恐れずに受け入れたとき、その涙は本当に純粋になる」——混ざり合う感情のすべてを包みこむような、静かな希望の物語。子どもにも大人にも届く、心をそっと濡らす一冊。
