Yuki Hirano is just out of high school when his parents enroll him, against his will, in a forestry training program in the remote mountain village of Kamusari. No phone, no internet, no shopping. Just a small, inviting community where the most common expression is “take it easy.” At first, Yuki is exhausted, fumbles with the tools, asks silly questions, and feels like an outcast. Kamusari is the last place a city boy from Yokohama wants to spend a year of his life. But as resistant as he might be, the scent of the cedars and the staggering beauty of the region have a pull.

They called it Sunday. Solan Vale was seventeen, in a drainage cut behind a reservoir fence in New Jersey, when he smoked something that had been sprayed with something else. For ninety seconds he understood that he was not walking east. The ground was going west underneath him, and he was the only thing in the frame that was not moving. It was not a hallucination. Nothing was there that was not there. It was a legitimate description of exactly the same facts, and no experiment can tell you which frame is the true one. Then it faded, and he was fine for nine years.

In between, he records local legends—tales pulsing with life, passion, and wondrous gods. Kamusari has other charms as well. One of them is Nao.
