I doubt that you’ve heard the story of the White Boar. Before the reign of the Meiziki, there was the Odoya Clan: regular samurai who’d subsisted off the trash of others. They stockpiled weapons left over from the Citadel’s countless civil wars, which allowed them to play the game of mob warfare with almost total supremacy. It’s said that one man destroyed them… ? By the time that Tavon had matured, his world consisted of those superior to himself. He would continue to be surrounded by deadly allies who stood to shape him in ways that he couldn’t expect. While partnered with the Meiziki Clan, Tavon vowed to achieve his true potential, to protect his new family as he developed into one of their greatest assets. This is Tavon’s final account of his upbringing as well as the story of the one who dared to lead the Meiziki into the World Below, the White Boar…

The Scream
The Scream
Laurent Graff
¥40.79
The story of a solitary soul living at the end of the world, continuing his daily routine of going to work in a toll booth on the highway. A terrible, mysterious sound that seems to come from nowhere is wiping out the population, and every day fewer and fewer people come by in their cars. But not everyone can hear the sound, and very soon the only survivors will be those few ‘silent ones’ left unharmed. What peculiar power does a stolen painting of Munch's The Scream exert? Why does reality become stranger and indeed crueller than fiction? The Scream begins in the twilight zone of science fiction, taking the reader on a hallucinatory road trip like no other.? Reviews "...?one of his most successful books.?It must be approached like the other books of Graff: do not ask too many question at first reading, be content with being carried away by the style and adventures of the protagonist.?In the end, you will discover that the depth of the book is inversely proportional to its number of pages.?As usual." ***** Goodreads “There is no doubt about it, the writer of?The Scream?is an extravagant and profound story teller.” -- Le Monde des Livres "Laurent Graff's books are crazy, weird, outlandish, which makes them totally indispensable." --www.event.fr "...blends together reality with fiction... what the narrator is really looking for is himself." -- Le Progres ABOUT THE AUTHOR Laurent Graff?is highly-acclaimed French author who ‘cultivates discretion and self-effacement’ and hopes to live as long as he can. His novel?Happy Days?has been translated into 15 languages and Johnny Depp has been trying (and failing) to make it into a film for many years.
