A Drunken Dream and Other Stories by Moto Hagio

4.0

I can't believe I put off reading this for so long. It's a great collection of short stories. Each one is very different and evokes a different feeling in me.

How I came to own this book was quite an adventure. I saw it at the publisher'a booth at a convention when it first came out and almost bought it but didn't. Every time RightStuf had a Fantagraphics sale in the years since then, I almost bought it but, over and over again, didn't. Finally about 6 months ago, I bought it on eBay for a great price ($4 or something), but the book never arrived and I had to file a claim through eBay. A month or so later, I tried buying again on eBay. And this time--success! Even after finally getting the book in my hands, it sat on my bookshelf for a few months until tonight, when I decided to just read it. (And I'm very glad I finally did!)
