[translation] If only I had had the STEED to go… Trip 8 - Elementary school

Oh, the times when sensei didn’t have to take a pandemic into consideration while sharing his thoughts on this topic… Anyway, I hope someone finds the translation of some interest, thank you for reading!

Hello!

I was just poking around LJ and then I saw your translations - and I realized that I had bought a secondhand copy of Shige's Steed some time ago. Thank you for this; I will finally be able to revisit it :)

Yay, happy reading! :) The essay format is extra relaxing too, less commitment than novels, which are quite an endeavour however good they are

[himitsuru]

Oh yes, I love creative non-fiction best actually, precisely why I fell in love and adore Shige's Aoi Hitorigoto (and him as a writer overall) in the first place.

I would like to say I look forward to more translations from you, but of course you might be busy with other commitments, so no pressure there ;)

I feel you. 10 years ago I stumbled upon Aoi Hitorigoto translations and fell in love instantly, no previous infatuation with Yamapi could compare haha

That's very flattering and inspiring, thank you 😊
