Rereading this, I am very glad I did because there are a large number of significant factors I'd forgotten, especially from later in the book. Eg, I'd completely forgotten about Pine view spoiler [a secondary character from Aoba's dream island Barbara, showing up Otherworld Barbara a teen at Kiriya's school and knowing him hide spoiler ].

Probably not in time for me to not need to reread this, because it was extremely rich and it seemed like every detail meant something. Sep 27, Derek Royal rated it really liked it. A highly sophisticated and dense narrative. Tonally, this is dramatically different from The Heart of Thomas, a work that Hagio is perhaps best Otherworld Barbara for. I think that Otherworld Barbara of this manga will immediately think of the film Inception, but it doesn't play around with narrative levels in the same way.

Publicly Accessible Penn Dissertations. 762. https://repository.upenn.edu/edissertations/762 This paper is posted at ScholarlyCommons. https://repository.upenn.edu/edissertations/762 For more information, please contact [email protected]. The Female Gaze in Contemporary Japanese Literature Abstract The female gaze can be used by writers and readers to look at narratives from a perspective that sees women as subjects instead of objects. Applying a female gaze to discourses that have traditionally been male-dominated opens new avenues of interpretation that are empowering from a feminist perspective. In this dissertation, I use the murder mystery novels of the bestselling female author Kirino Natsuo and the graphic novels of a prolific four-woman artistic collective called CLAMP to demonstrate how writers are capable of applying a female gaze to the themes of their work and how readers can and have read their work from the perspectives allowed by a female gaze. Kirino Natsuo presents a female perspective on such issues as prostitution, marriage, and equal employment laws in her novels, which are often based on sensationalist news stories. Meanwhile, CLAMP challenges the discourses surrounding the production and consumption of fictional women, especially the young female characters, or shojo, that have become iconic in Japanese popular culture.
