THE LINE BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH IS BLURRED, especially when mushi-a different form of life-appears. Ginko, a mushishi who wanders the land in search of learning about the many curiosities of mushi, visits an island where a woman's child may be the rebirth of her late mother. Life cycles repeat in an eerie manner where daughter becomes mother and mother becomes daughter. The ways mushi play in human lives-whether they are a good thing-is a mystery that Ginko works to figure out. CONTAINS VOLUMES 5 AND 6
