Review of Tono Monogatari
Folktales of monsters and gods and weirdness from Tono in Japan, originally collected in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, presented here in a graphic novel adaptation. The art is wonderful and the stories are delightful, even (maybe especially) when they seem unfinished. I enjoy the way the creator inserts himself into the framing narrative.
