In Yukiko Motoi's novel and stories, magical realism, absurdity, ancient myths and Shinto legends merge together. As a result, modern Japanese reality appears to the reader with its most fabulous, and most importantly, allegorical side. Here, men and women are not equal, but diverse beings. And where they seem to still merge together - believe me, it only seems so. The most unusual book of one of the most unusual authors of modern Japan in 2015 received the highest literary award of the Land of the Rising Sun - the Akutagawa Prize. The strange syncretic genre in which Yukiko Motoya writes his prose is tempting to define it as "magical grotesque". A sort of Japanese black humor, where the wormhole of any situation is brought to a mystical, otherworldly absurdity.
