One of two illustrated books simultaneously published by Mika Sasaki, the designer who brought into being the Harinezumi Camera. Differing from the warm, fuzzy story of "The Hedgehog and I", this picture-book has a surreal air about it, reminiscent of Kafka, or Kenji Miyazawa. The hedgehog in question walks and walks, in search of castle he will never find. A book about spiritually progressing, sideways.
