日本恐怖鄉愁小說第一人！ 133回直木賞得獎作家，日本恐怖小說大獎、All讀物推理小說新人獎得主！ 在暈黃的滄桑魅影中，回首青春的苦澀燦爛 看到那隻貓的屍體，我突然覺得，會感到寂寞的並不只有貓。 人也一樣，就像我對獨自一人生活至今感到寂寞。 一向以來了解的道理突然變得不再明確，本來無謂的事卻對它突然害怕起來；感到一種莫名的失落感，為一些繁雜瑣事而終日抑鬱──套一句矯情的話，就是所謂「徬徨的青春」…… 本書為日本直木賞得獎作家珠川湊人的「恐怖鄉愁」系列作品，由七篇短篇城市傳奇小說組合而成，以昭和40 ~ 50年代的東京下町為舞台，是一部追憶青春少年時的離奇異事所組合成的小說。 篇名如下：1.〈紫陽花開時〉 2.〈夏天的匿名信〉 3.〈書籤之戀〉4.〈女人心〉5.〈朱鷺色之兆〉 6.〈朱鷺色之兆〉 7.〈枯葉天使〉 雖說是七篇各自獨立的短篇作品，但由於共同主題及人物之連串，彼此微妙的牽引，仍具長篇小說的趣味。

Journey into the world of book collecting with the Goldstones-rediscover the joy of reading, laugh, and fall in love with books all over again. The idea that books had stories associated with them that had nothing to do with the stories inside them was new to us. We had always valued the history, the world of ideas contained between the covers of a book or, as in the case of The Night Visitor, some special personal significance. Now, for the first time, we began to appreciate that there was a history and a world of ideas embodied by the books themselves. Part travel story, part love story, and part memoir, Lawrence and Nancy Goldstone's U**sed and Rare provides a delightful love letter to book lovers everywhere.
