内容紹介
「烏原ののっぺらぼう 前編」(25分)
兵庫県在住のクニハルさんは五十代の管理職。彼の父親はクニハルさんが小学生の時に家を出てから行方不明のままだが、覚えている姿は酒に溺れ、博打にはまり、仕事もしない乱暴なろくでなしなのだそうだ。
しかし、母親は憤るクニハルさんに昔からよく「昔は本当にいいひとだったのよ……」と諭すように言う。「あのことが無ければあんな風に人が変わってしまうこともなかったのに」と。
あのことというのは、父がまだ母と結婚して間もない頃。小さな新聞配達の店舗の店主についたばかりのとき、ある朝一人の配達員の青年が真っ青な顔で配達区域から戻ると、震えながら「出た!烏原のお化けだ!」
「烏原ののっぺらぼう 後編」(33分)
六甲山脈に属する小さな山の頂には、池というにはあまりに汚い池があり、烏原の水源地と呼ばれていた。
その池の周りはいつだって陰鬱とした空気に満ちており、長年手入れのされていないのが一目瞭然、鬱蒼と茂った下草は伸び放題、挙句数年に一度は事故か事件かわからない水死体が上がり、誰いうともなく「烏原にはお化けがいて、生きてる人を殺すに違いない」という噂があった。
件の青年は詳しくは語らなかったが、おびえ切ってその区域への配達は出来ないので、クニハルさんの父が代わりに受け持つことになった。
1年ほどは何事もなったのだがある冬の朝のこと……。
「助けに来た子 前編」(29分)
この話も先にお届けしたクニハルさんから伺った話だ。先は父親の話だったが、今度は母親である。
クニハルさんの母は父が家を出た後、細腕一つでクニハルさんを育て上げた女性だが、どうやら昔から霊感が強かったらしい。
クニハルさんが10歳のころ、家計を支えるため、昼職のほかに夜はホステスをしながら休む間もない働きぶりは幼いクニハルさんの目にも圧倒的だった。
ある日、店の常連客が店のママと女の子数人と琵琶湖へ一泊二日の旅行に行こうと持ち掛けてきた。子連れであることを隠して務めていた母は躊躇したが、結局一緒に行くことになったそうだ。
しかし、後になって思えば躊躇したのはすでに嫌な予感があったからかもしれない。
「助けに来た子 後編」(25分)
男女11人で琵琶湖傍の老舗の旅館に着いたのは初夏で空のよく晴れた日の午後だった。
車から降りて宿に入ると肌寒い。違和感を覚えたその夜温泉に入りに行こうと一番遅れて部屋を出ると「ママ」という声とともに小さな男の子が腰にしがみついた。一瞬クニハルさんと思うもそんなはずはない。
遅いのを気にして戻ってきた同僚と話しているうちに男の子は消えてしまった。
そして、いよいよ事が起きたのは翌日、皆で琵琶湖に繰り出し貸しボートのスワンで湖に漕ぎ出してからのことだ。そろそろ戻ろうかというときに、同乗の男がふざけてスワンボートを揺らした拍子に転覆し母は水中に投げ出されたのだ。
その母の腰に昨夜の男の子しがみついている。©2021 Wataru shirotani

Story
Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

Story
It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Story
The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

Story
Who is Audrey Hoedemaker? It's a question her sister Maureen has heard more times than she can count, and she doesn't know what the short answer would be. Little sister, troubled teen, backpacker, musical theatre coach, con artist, childcare worker. Murderer. A tragic, traumatic childhood casts a long shadow on the Hoedemaker sisters. Maureen has worked hard to move beyond the violence of the past and build a good, honest life for herself. Audrey, however, just can't seem to do the same, careening from one state of chaos to another.

Story
Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.
