"Ghost" is an autobiographical debut novel by the famous writer Bei Dufu, winner of the Akutagawa Prize. The young "I" is on the edge of growth, and the uneasiness and hope of the past are gradually awakening in my heart. The childhood days when I was obsessed with insects, my father who passed away and my mother who suddenly left suddenly, the beautiful girl who touched "my" heartstrings for the first time, the beautiful melody interspersed in my memories... As the years go by, those vivid details gradually fade away, but in the corners of my memory, they seem to be hinting to "me" some important clues. Exploring the childhood memories buried deep in the mind and discovering why they have been forgotten may be an important key to unlocking the secrets of the soul.
