My foreign books

I'm a hard- core fan of Hally Potter.
I have 6 books in a sereies.
From 1 to 3 are good condition and very easy to read.
"Historian" is about a vampire.
It beconed me to go to the Eastern European contries.
I made more remarks in my blog

"Twenties girl " is a very funny and cute story.
I recomend this book for all girls.

"Twilight" and "new moon" are horror fictions.
There are a lot of adrable characters, vampire and wolf man.
But I'm sure that it's a dream of girls.
"blink" is written about the truth of "glimpse".
I'm interesten in some evidences, can tell just by looking or love at first sight,
the baced on the science researches.
"Hole" is a wonder story.
Boys are sended to a prerelease center, are digging holes in a dried up lake.
I'm wondering whether you may think it is real boring
or you can read with great interest.
I want to share our feelings.
I have some other books, "Catcher in the rye" "predictably irrational" "out liers".
I need more time to read books.

Teshima Sense by Chiyoko Todaka on Teshima


When you go down a hill to the sea from "Karatono Shimizu", you can see a pond and a lot of feathery objects dancing on the pond. That’s Chiyoko Todaka’s art work..
The objects are made from plastic fibers. They spin around and swing together in the breeze. Even with no wind, they swing softly. I think they are born from this pond and they don’t have clear form just like atmosphere.
Fortunately, I had a chance to hear about this art work from Chiyoko Todaka
She told me that she wanted to present something inspiring from this place. She said, each place has its own fascination. She believes we can’t explain it, we can only feel it sensuously, and she is happy when people feel it.
From her story, I think that her style is very natural. Now, a lot of artists create art works on purpose, for sale. They might suffer from the gap between the commercial ism to make a living and their instinct as an artist.
I hope that artists’ feelings are chosen over money.

In the Air by Noe Aoki on Teshima

“Karatono Shimizu”which is a famous fountain of Kagawa , is the focus of” in the Air”, Noe Aoki’s art work.
“Karatono Shimizu” is located at the base of Danyama,
Around 1000 years ago, when Kouhoutaishi, a high priest, of the Shingonsyuu, one of the schools of Buddism, came to this place, had thirst and dug in the ground , and then suddenly, fresh water sprung up. Even now, fresh water springs up from this fountain and is used as a local water source and a source for irrigation.
Noe Aoki installed a beautiful panel into the fountain. This panel, which has a lot of mottled circles clipped out of metal, has a design that seems like bubbles.
There is also a sculpture next to the fountain. It is a larged size work over 2 meters, but I didn’t feel it’s weight. It consists of thin iron wires, built in elliptical shapes that look like they are soaring into the air. If you look carefully, it consists of many welded round irons. These shapes also remind me of air and water, and the history of this place, protecting by local residents.Noe Aoki also might be presenting what she saw, and created a fusion of her art work and nature.
