Nails and Eyes by Kaori Fujino

Nails and Eyes by Kaori Fujino

Told from the unusual perspective of a young girl watching her father's new wife move into their home after her mother's death, this slim, unsettling novella tracks the child's obsessive, quietly menacing fixation on the woman meant to replace her mother.

Fujino's prose is spare and controlled, letting dread accumulate through small domestic details rather than overt horror, and the ambiguity of whether the narrator's perceptions can be trusted at all is what gives the novella its lingering unease. It won the Akutagawa Prize on publication in Japan.

A slim, unsettling novella and winner of Japan's prestigious Akutagawa Prize.
