In our concluding second volume, an amnesia-stricken Edgar is found alone on a snowy night in England. Separated from his ? vampirnella? clan, who feed on the energy of the living and while away the centuries in a village of roses, he struggles to remember his own name. Will Edgar regain his memory and be reunited with them? In stories like ? Piccadilly, Seven O' Clock,? ? Edith,? and ? The Last Will and Testament of Oswald Owens,? there are murders, mysteries, seances, and obsessions ? and generations of humans whose lives are profoundly affected by a boy who does not age, Edgar, and his embraced companions: his little sister, Marybelle, and Alan Twilight, a 14-year-old from the 1800s. Fantagraphics is proud to present the second and concluding volume of this best-selling manga, which has been adapted into various media, and is published here in English for the first time. Please note: This book is a traditional work of manga, and reads back to front and right to left.

[Hagio' s] work is inspired by American science-fiction and European film, suffused with markedly fluid notions of gender and evinces her unflinching eagerness to explore some very dark psychological places. -- "NPR"
