Mangaka Kawakatsu in conversation with translator Ryan Holmberg
>> SATURDAY, JUNE 13th @ 6:30pm
Our first-ever mangaka event!! Fantom friend/scholar/translator Ryan Holmberg brings influential alt-manga artist/editor/historian Kawakatsu Tokushige here to DC for a signing and book launch of his debut english publication, THE CURSED BODY.
“The Cursed Body collects two long stories from Kawakatsu’s ‘mysterious manga’ magazine Kagyu. ‘Cat Head Isle’ follows a group of three friends who boat out to a small, isolated island. The sole presence on the island is a cat shrine, but as they explore the friends start to exhibit increasingly erratic behavior. ‘Willow Weep For Me’ is the story of a mother and son who encounter a mysterious beggar on an afternoon walk. After the beggar’s body is fished up from the river later that evening, the strange and gruesome events begin to mount. Both stories are deeply influenced by kashihon (historical rental manga) and the classic ghost story form, and illustrate the author’s deep reading of Japanese and English literary traditions.”
