To commemorate the publication, we will be holding a talk event featuring the author, Daiki Abe, and his editor, Yuta Kurahata.

The theme of "diary books," which have seen diverse developments beyond traditional commercial publishing, including an increase in independent creators and the opening of specialized bookstores, and can be said to be booming, will be discussed, including interesting diary books and zines, and the meaning of commercial publishing of personal writings.
