Yumemiru Nutty Numbers
ゆめみるナッティー・ナンバーズ
A collection of fourteen short stories by Maki Sasaki, marking her first new work in twenty-one years. The tales range from the eerie and surreal to the deeply human, exploring themes of loss, isolation, and the strange beauty found in everyday moments.
Each story presents a unique scenario: a mouse in a workplace, a sea of sorrow, a mysterious doctor, a quiet goodnight, a dark club, a memento in the woods, red shoes, a bird's dream, a parting, an era of unemployment, a dance of death, a mermaid, a dead end, and a million-dollar mermaid. The narratives weave together the mundane and the fantastical, inviting readers into a world where the boundaries between reality and dream blur.
