FLOWERS OF EVIL COMPLETE ED TP #1

(W) Shuzo Oshimi (A) Shuzo Oshimi (CA) Shuzo Oshimi

Edgy, intense, and romantic, The Flowers of Evil has been a reader favorite. The routine of class and endless stupidity in a provincial town is taking a toll on middle-schooler Takao Kasuga. Though he gets along well enough with his peers, they'll never begin to dig any of that reading business that's his only true escape. What can he expect when he's in love with foreign stuff like the poems of Charles Baudelaire? In a moment of weakness, he finds and takes home the gym clothes of pretty, sweet, and smart Nanaka Saeki on whom he has a major crush. Witness to the theft is the oddest girl in class, who seems to consider the whole world a pile of excrement and to nurse a terribly sadistic streak. Collects volumes 1-3 of the original publication.
