NonNonBa is the definitive work by acclaimed Gekiga-ka Shigeru
Mizuki, a poetic memoir detailing his interest in yokai (spirit
monsters). Mizuki's childhood experiences with yokai influenced the
course of his life and oeuvre; he is now known as the forefather of
yokai manga. His spring 2011 book, Onward Towards Our Noble Deaths,
was featured on PRI's The World, where Marco Werman scored a
coveted interview with one of the most famous visual artists
working in Japan today. Within the pages of NonNonBa, Mizuki
explores the legacy left him by his childhood explorations of the
spirit world, explorations encouraged by his grandmother, a grumpy
old woman named NonNonBa. NonNonBa is a touching work about
childhood and growing up, as well as a fascinating portrayal of
Japan in a moment of transition. NonNonBa was the first manga to
win the Angouleme Prize for Best Album. Much like its namesake,
NonNonBa is at once funny and nostalgic, firmly grounded
