-read Toru Ni Taranai Chapter 22- Guide

The chapter’s most powerful sequence is a flashback within a monologue. We learn that Haruki’s mother was not a villain, but an absent figure. She was a touring violinist who left him with his grandmother at age seven. Her only form of love was leaving art supplies behind. For Haruki, art became a desperate attempt to "reach" her (the "Taranai" of the title).

A haunting and beautifully drawn chapter that cements this series as a must-read. -read toru ni taranai chapter 22-
