Chiisakobee Volume 3

From award-winning author who manga-adapted Wes Anderson’s Isle of Dogs comes a quirky poetic literary drama. Meet Forrest Gump, if he were a bearded carpenter! Follow a clumsily gruff carpenter’s attempt to keep his family business afloat amidst a romance with a childhood friend

After a fire burns down his family business and claims the lives of his parents, the young heir and master carpenter Shigetsugu vows to rebuild the failing venture with his late father’s words in mind: “No matter how things change, there are two things people value the most . compassion and stubborn pride.”

And then Ritsu, a housemaid with no relatives to rely on, comes rolling into his life with a group of children from a welfare facility who have nowhere to go, thus begins the dramatic last-ditch way-of-life story of a shaggily bearded carpenter!

This bold and ambitious reinterpretation of Shugoro Yamamoto’s classic historical novel Chiisakobee is brought to life with the full flourish of Minetaro Mochizuki’s bohemian brush!
