夜市/恒川光太郎

yoichi


第12回日本ホラー小説大賞受賞作ということで、
ずっと気になっていた恒川光太郎の「夜市」を読んだ。
審査員が大絶賛しただけあり、なかなかの傑作だ。
第134回直木賞候補にもなっている。

大学生のいずみは、高校の同級生・裕司に誘われ「夜市」を訪れる。
ここでは「黄泉(よみ)の河原の石」や「なんでも斬れる剣」など
不思議ものを売る市場が開かれていた。
そこで聞かされたのは、子どものころ夜市に迷い込んだ裕司が、
弟を売って野球の才能を購入、夜市から抜け出したという過去。
そして裕司はこの日、弟を買い戻すために、
またここを訪れたのだった・・・

ホラーというよりファンタジーという色が強い。
端正な文体で、異界の出来事を、
鮮やかに描き出しており、
夜市の情景が鮮明に思い浮かぶ。

併録された中編「風の古道」も味わい深い。
切なくて、目頭が熱くなってしまった。

というわけで、5段階評価は★★★★★

Hi there would you mind stating which blog platform you're using? I'm looking to start my own blog in the near future but I'm having a difficult time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I'm looking for something completely unique. P.S Apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!
