Wandering the packed tunnels of Shinjuku Station,
famous author Yosuke Mikura makes a strange discovery: a seemingly homeless
drunk woman who can quote French poetry. Her name is Barbara. He takes her home
for a bath and a drink, and before long Barbara has made herself into Mikura's
shadow, saving him from egotistical delusions and jealous enemies. But just as
Mikura is no saint, Barbara is no benevolent guardian angel, and Mikura grows
obsessed with discovering her secrets, tangling with thugs, sadists, magical
curses and mythical beings - all the while wondering whether he himself is still
sane.
