In the Hibiya area of ​​Tokyo, among the subway lines and sidewalks that are densely crisscrossed like an ant nest, there is a quiet park like an oasis. The woman sitting on the embankment next to Xinzi Lake with a coffee cup in her hand was the person I accidentally talked to on the subway a few days ago. We, who had never known each other by name, met by chance in the park and exchanged a few words. The relationship was both close and far away, just like the inversion of the near and distant views in the park, which gave the dull life a moment of respite... Also included is the novella "Flowers".

This set contains 4 volumes, namely "Under the Wheel", "Demian: The Wandering Boyhood", "Steppenwolf", and "Siddhartha".
