  This book is the last volume of "Kevin Goes to Japan."　Now Yukio, Tomoko, and Yumiko have arrived in London. How could Yumiko talk to Kevin with her honest feeling toward him? 
  1. London After 17 Years  
  2. Yukio's Yukio's Nostalgic Memories  
  3. It Is Like a Moth Flying into the Flame?  
  4. Mature Woman  
  5. Are You a Hetare?  
  6. Jumping Off the Stage in Kiyomizu Temple  
  7. Eternal Love  
  8. The True Identity of Tomoko the Yandere  
  9. Already Being a Domineering Husband?  
  135 JLPT sample questions and word lists come with the story. 
  This reading level is almost N1 level because the story goes towards an end, and I wanted to focus on more plots and how the characters feel. Also, the setting is in the UK, which makes word lists longer. Reading my book does not mean that you will be able to speak Japanese fluently, but I believe you will have improved your reading comprehension skills because I made it progressively more difficult from 1 to 4. 
  The paperback versions will be released soon to check the word lists and practice sample questions for some of you. 
  I hope you keep learning Japanese through the bilingual novel entitled "Parasite Man," a story about Yukio and Tomoko. (Kevin and Yumiko will be there, but not soon.) Five of Yukio's colleagues weave love stories where they want to be loved. Can they find true love? The first volume will be released in August/September 2022. 
  Thank you again, and good luck studying Japanese and reading bilingual novels.

  The Flowers of Evil

  Charles Baudelaire

  Sensual, macabre, joyous and liberating, The Flowers of Evil, or Les Fleurs du Mal, is a beautifully debauched reflection on dreams, sin, life, and death. With subjects ranging from travel to drugs, sex to faith, sleep to contemplation, Baudelaire finds new beauty in the most sinister and corrupt of situations. His morbid and nightmarish Romanticism was completely unique: cynical and bleak, but also inspiring, lifted by magnificent imagery and melodious language. The book was highly controversial upon its release and Napoleon III’s government prosecuted Baudelaire for "an insult to public decency"; six of the poems were banned until as recently as 1949.
