This is a title I stumbled upon quite literally few years back while I was bored, one day looking for books to read, I came across this not sure if it’s real or not. The author is Hitomi Tanaka, only thing I can find on this book is the synopsis Amazon doesn’t carry it and a few overseas book sites don’t carry it that I have searched. I was wondering if anybody in this sub Reddit or another sub Reddit has heard of it.
The author is either using a pen name or their actual name I am not entirely sure, because all of the searches I’ve done for that leads back to the Japanese adult entertainment actress of the same name, so that was no help at all I have tried to find this book for the better half of four years and I cannot seem to find any shred of evidence outside of online stores that this is real that this book is a physical thing in this world.
The synopsis of the book reads:
“Have you ever had a moment when you felt like you were destined to meet that person? ‘Life is weird. I never imagined that I would come across someone like you for whom I have this kind of deep affection.’ Hitomi Tanaka writes like a dream. To My Beautiful Rose, her collection of stories and sketches written in her marvelously lyrical and poetic prose will take the reader to her dreamlike world of love, friendship and fantasy. Tender, delicate, touching, surprising and spiritual. A story about friendship, love and faith set in Tokyo. Beautiful, elegant and original. Just read it right from the beginning, and share her secret world.”
The publisher of the book is pen press and it was published in 2012 I cannot find any copies. Anybody have any leads.
