A Drunken Dream And Other Stories
Reprinting
Moto Hagio has been reinventing Shojo manga (Japanese comics marketed at teenage girls) since 1969. Unconstrained by boundaries of genre, she has sculpted a career characterised by intellectual curiosity, psychological authenticity and an aesthetic sense that has often been at odds with a Shojo manga mainstream littered with Sailor Moon knockoffs and sub-Mills and Boon romance cliches. Now, for the first time in English, Fantagraphics offers a selection of Hagio short stories spanning four decades of groundbreaking work by an artist at the peak of her powers.
