BAKEMONOGATARI, Part 1 (novel): Monster Tale (Monogatari)

Thereâ€™s a girl at their school whoÂ is always ill. She routinely arrives late, leaves early, orÂ doesnâ€™t show up at all, and skipsÂ gym as a matter of course. Sheâ€™s pretty, and the boys takeÂ to whispering that sheâ€™s a cloistered princess. As the self-described worst loser in her class soon finds out, they just donâ€™t know what a monster she is.

So begins a tale ofÂ mysterious maladies that areÂ supernatural in origin yet deeply revealing of the humanÂ psyche, a set of case files as given to unexpected feelingÂ as it is to irreverent humor.Â So begins the legendary novelÂ that kicked off the MONOGATARI series, whose anime adaptations have enjoyed international popularity and criticalÂ acclaim.

This first of three parts introduces Senjogahara andÂ Hachikuji, and fans of the blockbuster prequel KIZUMONOGATARIÂ will be delighted to meet their favorite crazies again: the weirdly reliable narratorÂ Araragi, class president among class presidents Hanekawa, shady problem-solver Oshino, and a certain pale, blonde formerÂ vampire.
