Each bookstore will act as a concierge, recommending "the book you should read now" to FASHION HEADLINE readers. Every Wednesday, we will introduce recommended books from Keibunsha Ichijoji (10 Ichijoji Horidenocho, Sakyo Ward, Kyoto City), a Kyoto-based shop specializing in books and all things related to books.

■ "Ibaragi Noriko's House" by Ibaragi Noriko

This book is comprised of photographs and poems depicting the "house" that poet Ibaragi Noriko built at the age of 32 and lived in until her death at the age of 79.

Interior photographs that strongly convey the presence of the owner's recent past, "commemorative photographs" that evoke times past, and photographs from faded photo albums, all skillfully edited together, create a mysterious book that gives the impression of a distorted timeline.

Also noteworthy are the many beautiful objects selected by the poet's timeless aesthetic sense.
