Monkey Business Internationalという事で、
Comes in a Boxはちゃんと載ってるかなと
チェックしてみたら、最後に載っててイカッタ。
この人は金沢の友人の息子さんなのです。
まだ作品は読んだ事ないし、会った事もないのですがね。
明日は久しぶりの古本市行くつもりです。
楽しみにしてます。

september books さん、お早うございます。コメントありがとうございました。

Comes in a Box はまったくノーチェックでしたが、これは作家名なのですね。金沢に縁のある方ということで気になります。それにしてもモンキー・ビジネスに掲載されるというのはすごいですね。

明日の一箱古本市は、天気も良さそうですので、こちらも楽しみであります。よろしくお願いします。
