Description

Beyond the small screen, there was a reason to live. A story of half a lifetime of the singer Ado, from the closet to the world. This is the first nonfiction novel that depicts the path of Ado as a singer and the truth of the "me" deep within her heart.

[Comment from Ado]
A novel depicting my life is being released. Personally, I am happy that I can finally talk about this story. Stories from before my major debut with "Usseewa", where I encountered Vocaloid, why I decided to become a singer, and why I dislike myself. Things I have never revealed as Ado are all packed into "Vivarium". I would like everyone to take a look at what I have seen inside the miniature garden of the closet.

Description in Japanese

ビバリウム Adoと私 / Ado/原作 小松成美/著

小さな画面の向こうに、生きる理由があった。歌い手・Ado、半生の物語。 クローゼットから 世界へ。歌い手・Adoの軌跡と、 心の奥にいる“私”の真実を描く、初めてのノンフィクション小説。 本作は、Ado自らが語った半生をもとに、ベストセラー作家・小松成美が3年に及ぶ取材を重ね書き下ろした小説です。これまであまり語られてこなかった幼少期から、不登校となった学生時代、救いとなった「歌い手」への挑戦、所属事務所のクラウドナイン代表取締役社長・千木良卓也氏との出会い、そして「Ado」誕生からワールドツアーへの躍進までが余すことなく描かれています。 ビバリウムとは、生き物が住む自然環境を再現した、小さな箱庭のこと。デビュー前は自宅のクローゼットで録音をしていたことで知られるアーティストが、その箱庭にどのような想いで何を作り出していたのか、本書でしか知りえない「Ado」という一人の少女の物語にぜひご注目ください。 【Adoコメント】 この度、私の人生を描いた小説が発売されます。自分としては、やっとこの話ができて嬉しい気持ちです。『うっせぇわ』でメジャーデビューする前の話や、どこでボカロと出会ったのか、どうして歌い手になろうと思ったのか、どうして私は私のことが嫌いなのか……。これまでAdoとして明かしてこなかったことが、この『ビバリウム』に詰まっています。クローゼットという箱庭で私が見てきたものを、皆さんにも覗いてもらいたいです。

    Essential book for a fan! 5

    It is a very exciting book because it is told directly by Miss Ado. Discovering the behind-the-scenes is allowing me to understand many things and to appreciate this fantastic artist even more.
