This is Nishiko Kanako's first collection of essays, compiling essays she serialized in "Da Vinci" and "Asahi Shimbun" from 2009 to 2015. It's easy to read, with each essay spanning 2-3 pages, and I enjoyed reading it bit by bit during my breaks at work. Her warm and humorous writing style made me chuckle and ponder. The illustrations drawn by Nishiko herself are also lovely. *There are some light stains, but it's in overall good condition as it was read only once and kept with a cover (see images 5-7). There is no impact on the appearance or reading of the text, and it is in generally good condition.* • Author: Nishiko Kanako • Title: Manimani • Publisher: KADOKAWA • Price: 1300 yen + tax • ISBN: 978-4-04-067793-4 • First edition, first printing, 2015 • With obi (paper band)
