About Summer Fireworks and My Corpse Novel

Summer, Fireworks, and My Corpse is written by Otsuichi.

This book contains two short novels, including the title story and Black Fairy Tale, plus a bonus short story. Summer, Fireworks, and My Corpse is the simple story of a nine-year-old girl who dies while on summer vacation. While her youthful killers try to hide her body, she tells us the story – from the point of view of her dead body – of the children’s attempt to get away with murder.

Black Fairy Tale is classic J-horror: a young girl loses an eye in an accident but receives a transplant. Now she can see again, but what she sees out of her new left eye is the experiences and memories of its previous owner. Its previous deceased owner.
