Okinagasa

A story about a pretty flower that blooms in the fields, sometimes called the whirling shuge.
When viewed from above, the flowers appear to be blackish-purple, but when viewed from the perspective of an ant, they turn a fiery red as the sun shines through them.
Kenji loved this flower as it transformed into many different forms.

This is a book that will captivate your heart with its beautiful scenery and carefully drawn peace of mind, and give you a warm feeling.
