I am, a Girl

I am, a Girl

ぼくは、おんなのこ

A collection of eight one-shot stories by Takako Shimura, originally published between 1997 and 2001. The tales explore themes of gender identity, romance, ideals of beauty, and family relationships through the lives of young protagonists.

In "He Said, 'I Am a Girl,'" a boy struggles with his true self. "Let's Go to the Paradise" follows a girl's journey. "Boy's Daughter" examines a father-daughter bond. The three "Theme of Akemi" stories offer different perspectives on a character named Akemi. "The Flower" and "Sweet 16" delve into first love and personal anxieties, such as a girl's crush on her tutor and her dread of a school marathon.
