Week 5

Next, I tell you about Higashino Keigo.

 He is a Japanese mystery writer. More public likes his novels.

He was born Oosaka city in 1958. Many talks of the hometown

where the stage of the work was produced exist.

When boyhood, he was not reading a book at all. He entered high

School, he met with the mystery. Since he knew “EdogawaRanpo

 prize” that time, he read more books were written by Matsumoto

Seichou.  And he started to write mystery. However, he has

found a job at an electric company, without a mystery novels

hitting. If the work was written also after being employed, it was

taking out to the general invitation. “Makyuu” was defeated

although even the last candidate remained in 1984. Next year,

“Houkago” won the prize at last. So, he resigned from the

 company and moved to Tokyo.

 But, after becoming a writer, the bad condition of being unable to

sell a work continued.  It is although defeat was repeated no less

than 15 times to the literary award, but “Meitantei no okite”

attracted attention in 1996.  And “Himitsu” became popularity.

And “Yougisha X no kenshin” won the Naoki prize.

It is mentioning that his novel is related to his experiences and

relative. And He contributed the sales of the work “Kirin no

tsubasa” as relief money.

His more works were television-ized.

 I recommended that his work is “Akaiyubi.” This story’s main is

Family. Incident happened one house is the Maehara. Father

returned house because wife told him that return home soon.

When he returned home, little girl lies at the garden. He conceals

this incident.

 I like last scene. Main character’s Kaga Kyouichirou, his father

 will be in critical condition. But he didn’t meet father. Because

 his father was detective too, long ago his father didn’t come

 when his wife will be in critical. He and his father made a

promise that time, when father will be in critical, you didn’t come

sickroom. So, He kept this promise. But, he like father.
