Shinsou Ban Yazawa Eikichi Gekiron Shuu Nari Agari (Bunko)

[Machine Translation] A young boy who took the night train from Hiroshima to Tokyo. He had only 50,000 yen in his pocket, which he had saved from his part-time job, but he had a big, burning mass in his heart. I'm going to do music, I'm going to be a star! I will become a star! The boy has now become a star, just as he wished. A star among stars, a superstar. But what you see here are not the whispers of a star, but rather the sadness, misery, and sorrow of a star. He cries, laughs, and screams, letting out all his bitterness and misery. This book is a song of Eikichi Yazawa as it is.

広島から夜汽車に乗って上京した少年。ポケットにはアルバイトで貯めた5万円しかなかったが、胸には熱く燃える大きな固まりがあった。「おれは音楽をやる、星になる!」。その少年はいま、願いどおり星になった。星の中の星、スーパースターに。だがここにあるのは、うつろな星のささやきではない。くやしさも、みじめさも、すべて吐きだし、泣いている、笑っている、叫んでいる。この一冊はそのまま矢沢永吉の歌なのだ。
