It is a handsome and indifferent novel.
A tale progresses and dies to ふう which the surge of big emotions does not have, either and dropped off.
Conversion to signals was also accomplished by the France film director's hand in 2005.
Monochrome who calls it a specimen room and who is opened calmly or is closed in the place which does not wear a touch of reality the inside of it -- or it is the circumference and develops -- it is various -- it is a beautiful work The specimen engineer who has by using as a specimen attachment of 1, and an unforgettable thing and the thing which is not forgotten, and separates from a hand, and the hero who takes over office work alone.
there is no depiction with しんしん, and time and relation nature main characters are the space where only these two persons were closed densely, and direct which fall underwater -- be alike and carry out -- it is very erotic Client who visits so that it may be led -- The contents of a request were also very impressive.
It was made shocked by the marks of a burn and became uneasy in the form where it aligns with a hero.
A musical specimen is like a delicate and painful fantasy.
Contrast with the feeling of a life the room used for the performance was [ a feeling ] confused, and the finger full of 皴 on a keyboard is why, or has come to the breast.
It was the episode of the old man of a shoeshine who desired a specimen of the bone of a paddybird that was the most desirable.
If it says about him, the language which coils round subsequent shoes is more deeper, and it is minced by memory.
Shoes exactly carried out, so that shoes invaded the leg -- It by which the hero was presented to the engineer is not the pin which stops the butterfly in a specimen box completely.
If it considers, just 偏愛 and it which are turned to a substance will be felt like possessiveness rather than the love which he shows is called what is turned to man.
Therefore, the figure according to which a hero inclines to an engineer was not for not holding a certain kind of 惧れ, although it became faint.
I think that this language is very fearful as man "more fundamental and involved in him in" a thorough meaning.
First of all, a specimen will be suddenly considered to be ....
which will be what.
If people who requested specimen manufacture do not come for the most to look at the made specimen twice, an engineer will talk.
What is necessary is just to throw away, if you do not want to put into free and a field of view.
Why adheres to the form which will remain semipermanently?
Is it the expression of the heart which he wants to separate, however is wished to be -- to own?
If it is it, I will feel that he can understand for the feeling to desire.
Probably, if I myself and the depths are explored, monochrome to use about one as a specimen and get will come out.
The tale which closes a curtain in a too fearful form vaguely.
Although it became, it was also the work which is not in 惹かれず with a sigh.
Suddenly, interest sprang also to the way of a movie.
In the near future, I think that it will view and listen.
It is the work which was both recorded and with which "the small room of a hexagon" is mysteriously settled in a breast.
It is likely to be in demand although there are not a narration smallness room, and this and a touch of reality.
When the clear effect in soul is not drawn, however it was devoted too much, the dangerous thing did not have the exaggeratedly miraculous place currently drawn, and was good.
[ of the place ] Subtlety depiction of characters was also Hideyasu.
It is one about admiration that 描き of the circumstances which become disagreeable about a hero's person who has had good will till then is skillful.
Although I naturally do not have her experience, it will resonate saying "oh, it understands" so that naturally.
Although blur of her heart thinks ....
which is not special so that it may be special, how is it?
what -- an imitation -- progress of a feeling shift thinks that it is very real It becomes an image, and one sentence of blue mussel 、 caught between belts is printed on 眼裏, and does not separate.
Though it was wet, they were two pieces of difficult novels of a dry definition.
If it notices as it is not caught, it has fitted in to the deep place.
In the direction which wants to carry out reading which sinks in a character, it may be recommendation.

Keep in mind that it is netabare(ing).
Whenever it reads Mr.
Ogawa's work, I think that a text is beautiful.
that it is made indifferent, and it is Section 1 casual in being someone's language although it is a readable text たり -- what -- it is -- it is uncanny because it remains in my heart I think that this "specimen of the third finger" is the world which can be made just because it is Mr.
Ogawa's text.
Silence, beauty, and all 恍惚 are realized by Mr.
Ogawa's text.
I am taken to the wonderful world.
Once it enters, it becomes impossible and to slip out very much.
It will attach for the charm.
It was reading considering it what I have made into a specimen, when there was a specimen room.
The impression when reading leans gradually.
Something that leaned when a hero's woman lost the third finger inclined, and thought that it had collapsed.
She did not choose the way as how many persons who tried to correct the inclination having written herself.
It became the last and became incredibly fearful.
Her who is eaten away by Mr.
pupil Maru who works in a specimen room while being eaten away by shoes.
Although it thought that it was probably fortunate as her, here where it is reading was very fearful and was carried out.
But the fact has also been attached for the fear.
I think that there is also beautifully although her love is perversion-like [ it is severe and ].
The small room of one more piece of hexagon was also very good.
People are surely asking for the place which can actually take out and tell a mouth what is considered in the heart.
I want to see a movie.
I think that France fits this tale.

"Specimen of the third finger "Small room of a hexagon Although the library where two works are recorded was read, I thought that a text was really beautiful."" A life, scenery depiction, etc.
of a hero's former remain in the heart.
However, "specimen of the third finger Specimen room "Small room of a hexagon "Narration smallness room It is not told [ from what circumstances it was made, and ] clearly, and there is how much demand, and a question will be felt being realized as trade as a practical question, etc.
and its hits.""" A hero can be employed easily [ a specimen room ] or the direction of the narration smallness room is committed there.
?
Some which cannot go into the world easily somehow are in the place referred to as having become acquainted with Midori by chance.
since 惹かれる's was in the beauty of a text "-- usually -- " Near "It is good.
" には -- although carried out, the thing more than the recognition as a novel strictly like a fantasy was the work which was not able to be felt

For a while, netabare is included.
The choked work of two pieces of short story works of Yoko Ogawa who is also the Akutagawa Prize writer that evaluation overseas is also high and the foreign language translation of many books is carried out, and the author of "the expression which the doctor loved." It seems that 表題作 was turned into a movie in France this year, and became the center of attention for a while.
"The small room of a hexagon" is recorded on others.
Now, although a this work and surface top will be once classified into a pure love system, if it considers so and reads, it will have the sense of incongruity of mere a few in the story.
Few spots which exist daily which flows indifferently little by little.
Usually, as for the spot, "if it passes over a throat, he will forget heat" will become like and the cause for it to produce gap of a certain kind, if the tale progresses, although it is the thing which seldom stops at mind.
First of all, a peculiar stage setup called the specimen room which remodeled the apartment is a thing with quite delicate temperature and humidity.
The thing carried there, the specimen of sound, the shoes given when I continued wanting you to vomit, the specimen of a mushroom .....
It melts into the stage mistily and the piece scattered all over the rose rose is diffused like ぶる霧, not to mention it is collected into one place.
And when for the first time in [ the け ] spreads on the neighborhood whole surface, the shadow reflected there is seen and noticed.
It is that oh, it says from general feeling and this work is not mere pure love something.
No, by a certain meaning, it is with "it may be true true love." I think that only the read direction understands this air.
The view of the world by which loss is made this.
The view of the world by which a non-usual state is made good.
And it is anxious for the hero itself becoming 有 of a certain kind .....
a transparent feeling like glass, and wooden Euro pian -- the effect with strange nostalgia which is antique of a text -- overlapping -- "doctor's love -- from expression", the eeriness which imagination does not attach at all was finished in the たたえた work the bottom at the whole volume "The small room of a hexagon" turns around and is the text of a non-日常 system rather than an uncanny system just for a moment.
The work with which an adult performs it although it is a setup which is likely to be in a juvenile novel and which will be untied whether to become.
he likes this one better than 表題作 -- 、っていう people also think many [ people / quite ] there is a place which passes to a "doctor" -- it was the existing talk which existed and to blow I regarded both of the works as quite highly complete.
Although the direction of "the specimen of the third finger" is recommendation as to [ it / which ] it is, if I am these two works, worth of a single reading [ both ] is a certain tale.
It is estimated a standard and a general comment "are very good." a movie is also exhibited also in Japan (it is said ?), and if there is an opportunity, I will want to see (Such こと言 although it thinks that it does not see after all without moving from its seat : bitter smile)
