Where We Go When All We Were Is Gone

Jeremy “Sequoia” Nagamatsu ’04 has published his first book, Where We Go When All We Were Is Gone (Black Lawrence Press, 2016). “The Return to Monsterland” opens the collection of genre-bending stories inspired by Japanese folklore and pop culture. Demons with marital problems, orientations for neophyte ghosts, the twilight years of legendary heroes, and a dance party in a post-apocalyptic Tokyo populate these pages. Every story turns to the fantastic, the mysticism of the past, and the absurdities of the future to illuminate the spaces we occupy in times of uncertainty.
