Summer Ghost (Light Novel)
Translated by Terry Gallagher
About
They say if you light fireworks at an abandoned airfield on a midsummer night, the ghost of a young woman who killed herself will appear. Three high school students — each carrying their own reasons for wanting to meet the dead — travel there together. They don't know each other. They don't know what they'll find. They know only that they need something the living world hasn't given them. Loundraw and Otsuichi's novella is a ghost story told with the gentleness of a coming-of-age — the supernatural encounter becomes a space where three lonely teenagers can finally say what they've been unable to say to anyone alive. A summer story about the strange comfort of meeting someone who is already past the thing you're most afraid of.
