The Girl from the Other Side: Volume 1, Deluxe Edition Hardcover, reads right to left, unlike most books. A gorgeous and classic manga/fantasy/graphic novel! In nearly-new condition, no flaws aside from a dent in the bottom back cover, see close-up photo. Once upon a time... In a land far away, there were two kingdoms: the Outside, where twisted beasts roamed that could curse with a touch, and the Inside, where humans lived in safety and peace. The girl and the beast should never have met, but when they do, a quiet fairytale begins. This is a story of two people - one human, one inhuman - who linger in the hazy twilight that separates night from day.
