Mariel Imari loves to eat, drink, and sleep. She also loves cats. In fact, she and felines are somewhat alike and often spend time together. At the leisurely pace of her idle days, discover the private life of Mariel Imari! La Pomme Prisonniere resembles a kind of narrative art gallery. Here, we (re)discover the full talent of Kenji Tsuruta, his sumptuous settings, his characters with their pouty expressions and slender bodies, whose beauty is heightened by the depiction of nudity. The daily and intimate life of Mariel Imari, which we first encountered in Forget-me-not, is presented here in short, humorous vignettes that exude a soothing tranquility, like a day off spent under the covers... As a special feature, it also includes new color illustrations by Asumiko Nakamura, Katsuya Terada, Hiroaki Samura, Shimoku Kio, and Masakazu Ishiguro. This is a Japanese edition and contains little text.
