Synopsis
The first three volumes in the New York Times bestselling teen romance series combined into one oversized edition. Fans will be delighted to reconnect with bookworm Takao Kasuga, pretty and smart Nanako Saeki, and class weirdo Sawa Nakamura as these characters navigate middle school, love, finding their own identities, and Baudelaire's poetry. The second combined edition of The Flowers of Evil features volumes 4-6 and follows the adventures of a lonely, bookish teen struggling to find his identity through Baudelaire's poetry, until two girls - a beauty and a bully - help him discover true love and friendship.
Synopsis
Takao makes a decision... he will try to win the affection of one of his muses. This will be no simple task, as the teens are all now damaged and warped. Takao is in search of a utopia, one that can only be shared with his only friend, that will sit just briefly among the rice paddies of his rural hometown. But then Takao and Nakamura are wrongly accused of a crime, and the local authorities want to pin all strange behavior this small town has seen recently on the two teens. Will being treated as outcasts in their own community keep these two from crossing over to the other side...?
