This charming manga collection presents three modern fables by one of Japan's most gifted authors, the poet and short story writer Kenji Miyazawa. Miyazawa is beloved in Japan, and increasingly abroad, for his masterful storytelling, poetic imagery, and powerful evocation of both the shadow and light of human nature. His world of sentient stars and enchanted forests, presented here in manga form, will appeal to imaginative readers of all ages. The Restaurant of Many Orders follows a pair of confident, self-centered young men on a hunting expedition. After entering a mysterious restaurant, the men are given peculiar orders such as to rub cream on their bodies - until they finally realize they themselves are about to become dinner for lurking beasts! Plus, The Wildcat and the Acorns and The Twin Stars.
