ABOUT THE BOOK

Astral Season, Beastly Season is the debut novel by Japanese writer Tahi Saihate: a meditation on belonging, the objectification of young pop stars, and teenage alienation.

The story follows Morishita and Yamashiro, two high-school boys approaching the age in life when they must choose what kind of people they want to be. When their favourite J-pop idol kills and dismembers her boyfriend, Morishita and Yamashiro unite to convince the police that their idol's act was in fact committed by them. Translated from the Japanese by Kalau Almony.
