A Truthful Picture

This was a really touching slice of life story, and Kari-sensei made the characters feel real and substantial (especially Teru). The short stories that followed the main story were also enjoyable, and I think every reader will be able to relate to at least one or another of them. I know a few definitely gave me pangs of nostalgia.

High school student Teruaki Kittaka had a secret crush on his classmate, Kenji Yoshino. After a scarring experience in middle school, Teru was sure to keep the secret to himself... Or so he thought. What will happen if Kenji finds out...?! Sumako Kari presents this and a collection of other touching tales of love and affection that will resonate with people of all ages and backgrounds.
