Japanese Literature
Asahi Bunko / The stage is in the area of Edo, Hatchobori and Nihombashi in the end of the Edo period. As a midwife apprentice, 21-year-old Yumi YAMAMURA is sleeping with her apprentice Suzu at the house of her grandmother, who is also her teacher. Childbirth is a microcosm of life now and in the past. Some babies are welcomed and born into this world, others are too young, others are born with a wife and children, and others are unwanted. In an era when many more mothers and children died due to childbirth than now, what can I do for women who risked their lives to give birth despite various circumstances? A feeling and movement that depicts the appearance of a woman who grows with conflict in the field where life is born.
