As indicated by the title, B dy is a collection of horror stories, all thematically linked to people's perception of their bodies, and the consequences of vanity and low self-esteem. In the vein of the psychological suspense of the Twilight Zone, each story ends with a shock, leaving the reader unsettled with the old adage, ""Be careful what you wish for,"" echoing in their bones.

Appropriately, each of the five stories in B dy gets its title from the body parts featured, buttocks, blood, face, hair and chin.

Reviews for Body

Praise for Asa Nonami This pulpy family psychodrama is hugely entertaining--like watching some filmed version of The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test from an adapted screenplay by Mario Puzo and directed by Yasujiro Ozu. --TIME Asia on Now You're One of Us Asa Nonami has crafted a fascinating horror story that lingers in the imagination long after the final page has been turned. --HorrorReader.com on Now You're One of Us
