Review: Let me start off by saying that if you haven't picked up a Hagio Moto manga yet, this one is a GREAT one to start. Unfortunately, Moto Hagio has not had much exposure to America - which is really surprising because she is one of the most thought-provoking mangakas that I know. However, Hagio is one of the most well known authors of all time in Japan because she, and a few other brilliant artists, revolutionized the shoujo (girl's comics) genre. If that doesn't say anything, I don't know what does. So enough about how famous the author is - how is "A Drunken Dream?" I picked up the book knowing that it was a compilation of short stories (usually, short stories aren't my taste). Some of short stories in this book are truly wonderful and I can go back just to reread them. I would be lying if I said that I LOVED each and every one of them but I CAN say that they each gave me a lasting, if not a great, impression. Hagio's themes are deep, tragic, and sometimes very dark; it plays our mind and makes us think. Besides the actual content of the book, I'd like to add that this is one beautiful hardcover book to add to anyone's collection. Fantagraphics really went all out for this one and I can say that the quality is impeccable. The translation is very smooth and doesn't take away from the story either. There is even bonus content included; an interview with THE Hagio Moto herself! So if you care more for the plot of the stories and the quality of the book rather than the art style (personally, I think it's very beautiful and detailed), I would truly recommend purchasing a copy.
