Furuya Usamaru Tanpenshu: 1985-nen no Sodom

古屋兎丸短篇集 1985年のソドム

This collection brings together six unpublished short stories by Usamaru Furuya, written between 2015 and 2021. The centerpiece is the autobiographical two-part tale "Sodom 1985," which recounts the author's formative encounter with the Grand Guignol theatre play that inspired his earlier work "Lychee Light Club." The remaining stories explore the struggles and growth of impressionable boys and girls, each paying homage to classic works of literature and cinema.

In "Youth," adapted from Jun'ichirō Tanizaki's novel, a young man navigates the complexities of adolescence. "Death in Azabu-juban" reimagines Thomas Mann's "Death in Venice" in a modern Tokyo setting. "Female Student" draws from Osamu Dazai's writing, while "Soma Kill Trailer" presents a contemporary thriller. Through these diverse narratives, Furuya examines themes of identity, desire, and the passage of time.
