Wind Chime Buckwheat

Wind Chime Buckwheat

細井雪

On a cold night in Edo, there is a soba noodle vendor who sells soba at a stall with a wind chime hanging from it—soba with wind chimes. One night, a young woman visits Masuke, a taciturn soba vendor. "Please give me a bowl of soba," she says, and there are fallen leaves on her head. Her round face and drooping eyes resembled a raccoon dog in some way. This is an entry for the "Naro Radio Grand Prize 7."
