  日曜日に生まれた子供に福音を。
  The gospel for children born on Sunday.
  This review contains spoilers. ちょっと時代を遡った貴族のお話。私はこの時代のBLがことのほか好きです。現代にはない不便さだとか、不便だからこそ許されるおおらかさを愛してやまないから。表題作。貴族と執事の幼いころの出会いと、叔父との秘密の繋がり。それが明かされたときに、執事を何度も父親と間違えたことが貴族の優しさではなかったのか…と思い至り絶句。（そんな優しさが世の中にあるかい…）続くオリーブでは、奥さんが悪人じゃないのが良くて、オリーブに託された優しさが作品全体を包み込んでいるようです。『森の郵便配達人』捨てられた少年に、居場所を示した番人。ただ同じベッドで2人丸くなって眠ることだけが少年の望むものの全て。描きおろしは最後までブレなかった少年の気持ちを思うと、涙無くしては読めなかった。2人をそっと見守る森の住人の気持ちになって読みました。そしてBL本の中にまさかのGLが！こういう遊び心が大好きなんよ紺野先生！

  This review contains spoilers. This is a story about an aristocrat who has gone back in time a bit. I really like BL from this era. That's because I love the inconveniences we don't have today, or the generosity that is allowed only because it's inconvenient. Title work. An early encounter between a nobleman and a butler, and a secret connection with his uncle. When it was revealed, I thought that mistaking the butler for his father over and over again was probably not the kindness of the aristocrats... (Is there such kindness in the world...) In Olive, which continues, it is good that the wife is not a bad person, and it seems that the kindness entrusted to Olive envelops the entire work. “The Postman in the Forest” is a guard who showed an abandoned boy his whereabouts. The only thing the boy wanted was for the two to roll up and sleep in the same bed. When I thought about the boy's feelings that didn't blur until the end of the drawing, I couldn't read it without tears. I read it with the feeling of a forest resident gently watching over the two of them. And then there was an unexpected GL in the BL book! I love this kind of playfulness, Konno sensei!

  絵本のような
  like a picture book
  絵柄にストーリー。ガツガツでもエロエロでもなく、どこかキュっと胸を締めつけられる感じで好きです。年配の雰囲気にも味があります。

  A story in a pattern. I like it because it's not gutsy or erotic, and it feels like it tightens my chest somewhere. The old vibe also has its flavor.

  美しかった～
  it was beautiful~
  ファンタジー絵本のような美しさでした。エロはほぼないし、BL度はかなり低め。いくつかの短編が入っていますが、表題作と同窓会の話が好き。ここで書くのは見も蓋もないけど、電子書籍じゃなくて紙の本で手元に置きたいな。

  It was as beautiful as a fantasy picture book. There's almost no eroticism, and the BL level is pretty low. There are a few short stories in it, but I like the title work and the reunion story. What I write here doesn't have a cover or look, but I want to keep it handy in a paper book, not an e-book.
