The Lonely Deity from the Animal Village. Artbook Tsukku
Open this book, peek under the cover and… you will be transported to the mysterious world of traditional Japanese mythology. Together with this artbook, you will get lost in the depths of the Japanese forest with the mysterious beings inhabiting this world: deities and demons, yokai and yurei, half-human half-beast… But that is not the main thing: a whole story will unfold before you, touching, sometimes eerie, but invariably poignant and bright. It speaks of good and evil, the value of friendship and companionship, cruelty and the possibility of redemption.
In the second part of the artbook, you will also have the opportunity to look behind the scenes, into the creative workshop of Japanese illustrator Tsukku: to learn how this story was created, from which specific myths the author drew inspiration, and get to know the beloved characters up close.
