   Moto Hagio's Drunken Dream and other sto

   From: bliss-sf4ever@dslextreme.com   
      
   Moto Hagio's  A Drunken Dream and Other Stories.   
      
   10 stories published by Fantagraphics, at 24.99 USD   
   250 pages approximately,   
   Found at the San Francisco Public Library Main,   
   Includes an article "the Magnificent Forty-Niners" and   
   an interview with the mangaka, Moto Hagio including   
   biographical information, both by Matt Thorn.   
      
   The appellation "Magnificent Forty-Niners" applies   
   to the female mangaka who created a revolution in   
   about 1970 in shojo manga.  Most of those were not   
   actually born in 1949 but Moto Hagio was and her   
   work is magnificent.   
        This is not simple-minded manga for children   
   but a variety of themes dealing with human   
   conditions and problems.   
        It is worth the price if your local library is not   
   sufficiently enlightened to carry manga.
