"有一天，Haneru Sato变成了一只兔子。从那时起，他就一直是一只兔子。" 这些超现实主义、但又是事实的开场白我们被带到了一个与我们自己的世界非常相似的世界，但这个世界多了许多奇迹和好奇的色彩。在佐藤的世界里，普通的物品和日常事务都会带来一段奇遇：一个映照天空的雨坑成为一扇可以被打开和窥视的窗户；一颗核桃被敲开，里面有一个小小的家，还配有一个浴缸和一张舒适的床。在流星雨期间，佐藤用网捕捉星星，为晚上散步的一家人照亮了回家的路。这个异想天开的故事是日本三部曲中的**部。

“One day, Haneru Sato became a rabbit. He’s been a rabbit ever since.” With these surrealist, yet matter-of-

fact opening lines, we are transported to a world very much like our own, yet one that is imbued with an added dimension of wonder and curiosity. In Sato’s world, ordinary objects and everyday routines can lead to magical encounters: a rain puddle, reflecting the sky, becomes a window that can be opened and peered through. A walnut is cracked open to reveal a tiny home, complete with a bathtub and a comfy bed. During a meteor shower, Sato catches stars in a net, illuminating the path home for a family taking an evening walk. This whimsical tale is the first in a trilogy from Japan.
