An award-winning novel written by actor Hiro Mizushima hit bookstores across Japan on Wednesday, luring book lovers and Mizushima fans. ‘‘Kagerou,’’ the first work the actor wrote under his real name Tomohiro Saito, sheds light on the meaning of life by depicting a suicidal man who has lost his job and money.
A 28-year-old woman who purchased a copy at a bookstore in Tokyo’s Yurakucho district on her way to work said, ‘‘I bought it because it was introduced on TV programs and much talked about.’’ Poplar Publishing Co in Tokyo has already printed over 430,000 copies, which it says is an unusually high number before the release, after giving Mizushima this year’s grand prize in its annual novel competition.
We sure wish him goodluck:-) Gambatte ne Hiro-kun !!!
