2012.7.18

They say the rainy season of Kanto area was over, but it rained again in the evening.  The new typhoon is also approaching, and Kyushu area may have lots of rain again.

Yesterday there was an announcement of 147th Akutagawa Prize (芥川賞:akutagawa sho) and Naoki Prize (直木賞:naoki sho).  The former was given to Ms. Maki Kashimada (鹿島田真希) by Meido meguri (冥土めぐり: Rounding the other world).  The latter was given to Ms. Mizuki Tsujimura (辻村深月) by Kagi no nai yume wo miru (鍵のない夢を見る:Seeing the dream without key).  Both are in their 30s.  Congratulations!
