Ep 334 Does Size Matter?
Bookbinding
A smaller version of the larger Benengeli’s Zuihitsu. The title combines two important books: Don Quixote (1605) and The Pillow Book (1002). Cervantes claimed the Benengeli wrote Don Quixote. Sei Shonagon wrote The Pillow Book which someone called a zuihitsu.
The smaller version is A6 in size with 9 signatures of four folios each and 144 pages (versus the five signature of five folios each, 80-page larger version).
Fiction
After finishing Benengeli’s Zuihitsu and The Dry Watermill Case, I continued working on The Lonely Izakaya Down a Quiet Street. Perhaps the name will be changed to either The Lonely Izakaya or Kajigaya Sakaba. Why? Because the longer title sounds like a Japanese version of a young adult novel (called a light novel in Japan).
My favorite light novel title is I Want to Eat Your Pancreas written by Yoru Sumino and made into a manga, anime, and live action flick as is often the case with popular light novels.
The Lonely Izakaya Down a Quiet Street is in its eighth month. There are two parts to each month. Part One is the former student’s (Rin) thoughts and life. Part Two is the former teacher’s (Shimeki) thoughts and life. Part Two concludes when the interaction between the student and teacher starts in Part One.
There is also a bit of magical realism included. One of Rin’s co-workers can teleport through space; no one comments on it. Rin can move things with her mind, often to her unintended detriment.
There is also a running argument between Rin and her supervisor about the number of toilets in a female restroom vs the number of toilets and urinals in a male restroom.
Aside from The Lonely Izakaya (which sounds too much like a subsidiary of the travel books The Lonely Planet, doesn’t it?), I started another Marsh Mystery (short private detective stories) titled: The Madrid Murder Case. More on that in the future; if it pans out.
