About the author

Hiro Arikawa won the tenth annual Dengeki Novel Prize for new writers for Shio no Machi: Wish on My Precious in 2003, and the book was published the following year. It was praised for its love story between a heroine and hero divided by age and social status, and for its depiction of military structures. Although she is a light novelist, her books from her second work onwards have been published as hardbacks alongside more literary works with Arikawa receiving special treatment in this respect from her publisher, MediaWorks. Shio no Machi was also later published in hardback. Her 2006 light novel Toshokan Sensō (The Library War) was named as Hon no Zasshi's number one for entertainment for the first half of 2006, and came fifth in the Honya Taishō for that year, competing against ordinary novels.

She often writes about the Japan Self-Defense Forces (JSDF) and her first three novels concerning its three branches are known as the Jieitai Sanbusaku (The SDF Trilogy); she also wrote about the fictional Library Forces in the Toshokan Sensō series. Raintree no Kuni, which first appeared as a book within a book in Toshokan Nairan was later published by Arikawa as a spin-off with another publisher. It was adapted into a film titled World of Delight released on November 21, 2015.[2][3]Her novel Shokubutsu Zukan (ja) will be adapted into a film titled Shokubutsu Zukan: Unmei no Koi, Hiroimashita and scheduled for release on June 4, 2016.

甘っ！

[Erika · Rating 2 out of 5]

「別冊」と付いているのは、「別冊花とゆめ」「別冊マーガレット」とかの「別冊」と同じ、と著者があとがきで述べてるように(というか、私はその「別冊」にそういう意味？雰囲気？があるとは知らんかった)、ものすごく甘い、ラブラブな内容。
というか、なんだろう、 ファンの二次創作 みたい。

良化法に触れない言葉で、でもそれらを組み合わせた「普通の」言葉で罵詈雑言や差別表現を書く作家の話は面白かった。この木島ジンという作家、誰かモデルがいるんだろうか。
この架空の作家のインタビューに出てきた、「差別とは言葉で一律に解決できる問題ではなく、一つ一つを吟味し検討しなければならない」という言葉は、作者有川浩のメッセージがこもってるんだろうなと思われる。

だがしかし。
それにしても「ベタ甘」過ぎて、私はちょっと…
本編の後日談が知れて、まぁよかったけど。

The relationship development between Dojo and Kasahara is what I care about the most, so when I first discovered this book, I was like awwwwwwww.

And this book really satisfies me, giving a lot of details on how they become a "make-people-jealous" couple, and the cute personality of Dojo is further shown in this book.
