"Innocence doesn't need experience, but experience seems to be always in need of innocence"
Yoko 2 is the pen name of Japanese writer and artist Rin Watanabe. She has the reputation of being an enfant terrible in her home country since her writings feature some of the more deviant and violent elements in Japanese society.
Her novels have been described as a salacious mix of crime, fantasy and social commentary. She herself - or someone with the same name - always appears as a central character, thus blurring the boundaries between fiction and autobiography.
So who is it really telling the story?
Her Made in Japan tetralogy (comprising Tethered, Ugly, Empty and Hurt) is being independently published in English by Dark Orient."Innocence doesn't need experience, but experience seems to be always in need of innocence"
