"Never open it: the taboo trilogy is a collection of three stories from Ken Niimura that are rooted in well-known Japanese folktales 'Urashima Taro,' 'The Crane Wife,' 'ikkyu-san.' Each story delves into the concept of the taboo, asking questions such as 'Why are these rules meant to be followed?' and 'Who sets these rules in the first place?'--Jacket flap.
