This book is halfway between a picture book and a graphic novel, open to readers of all ages. The images in various layouts go back and forth between the demon and the girl, and their situations and psychology to create suspense with many implications. Their stories interlock and overlap to expand the meanings and themes. The unforgiving years that Mephisto, a demon turned stray dog, and a lonely girl spend together deliver messages of hope and redemption paradoxically. A dog that does not grow old from being a demon, and a girl who loses her memories as she grows older – their stories of desperation will make readers think about their own relationships and those around them.
