| ★Author: Kazuo Uemura★Format: A5★Number of pages: 496★Binding: Velvet soft cover/shrink film exterior with sticker★Price: 2,800 yen + tax ★Published by Mandarake Publishing Department ISBN978-4-86072-101-5 C0979 "Divorce Club"------ It's a place to let out your tears when you're sad or lonely------ "Divorce Club" is a long-running work that was serialized in Manga Action from October 1974 to August 1975, following two other masterpieces, "The Cohabitation Era" and "Crazy Relationships." Yuko (25 years old) is the manager of a small club called the Divorce Club in Ginza. This work, which poetically depicts the daily life of those around her - her three-year-old daughter, her mother with whom she is always clashing, her ex-husband who is an entanglement, the girls who work at the bar, and Ken-chan, the bartender who has feelings for Yuko - can be considered a culmination of Uemura Kazuo's work and his "masterpiece." However, unfortunately, only a quarter of the work has been published in book form until now, and it has been little talked about. Nine months have passed since the release of the first volume of Bibliotheque Series : 2, which garnered a great response, and now the long-awaited complete version, Volume 2, is finally on sale! The story is now complete! This work showcases many of the techniques that could be called the secrets of author Kazuo Kamimura 's gekiga, and encompasses all of his charm. It is truly a masterpiece that can be called the pinnacle of his career. And the final episode is especially noteworthy. The protagonist Yuko's "certain decision" causes turmoil, leading the reader to a state of confusion and ecstasy. What does happiness and life mean to Yuko? It has been about forty years since the work was released. The full picture of this "phantom masterpiece" is finally revealed. |
