BAKEMONOGATARI, Part 2 (novel): Monster Tale

Bakemono, literally â€œaltered thing,â€ which translates as â€œmonster.â€ Monogatari,Â literally â€œthing narrated,â€ which translates as â€œtale.â€ Combined into a neologism by he of the reversible nom de plume, they yield BAKEMONOGATARI,Â the monster tale that kicked off a series whose animeÂ adaptations have enjoyedÂ international popularity and critical acclaim.

A self-described loser, Koyomi Araragi is struggling at a prep school that he should never have gotten into. He has all but quit caring, but as a senior, he faces the chilling scenario of not being able to graduate. Itâ€™s time to cram, but the supernatural aberrationsÂ that keep on popping up in his provincial town wonâ€™t let him be.

Previously, our hero turned into a vampire and back, gained an acid-tongued girlfriend, and couldnâ€™t find his way home thanks to a lost child. In this second of three parts, which introduces Suruga Kanbaru and Nadeko Sengoku, he becomes embroiled in a case that riffs on a classic English story from 1902.
