A man with no memories wakes up in the woods one day and meets a strange boy with a hat.
When his love for the woman he cherished is shattered, the realization that dawns on him is this—he is in love with another man. Kazuhiko works as a sales representative in the apparel industry. Takako, the manager of one of the shops he visits, is a close female friend, but she's also someone he can't help seeing as a potential romantic partner. However, a sparkling engagement ring already adorns her left ring finger. Then, one day, Kazuhiko is told by Toru, a staff member at Takako's shop, that he plans to quit. Toru is a man who is always expressionless and impossible to read, someone who has consistently made things awkward between them. Hearing that Toru will be leaving the shop, Kazuhiko finds himself feeling relieved rather than disappointed... or so he thinks.

From Aestheticism: The stories in this volume ran in various magazines between 1989 and 1992. This was well before the pro yaoi boom, but obviously the pro impetus was there. Generally the stories are odd and low-key examinations of the tristesse of existence- as in the classic 'I loved him and he didn't love back on account of he won't admit he's gay even though he says 'I love you Takaya' in his sleep (the title story, Beyond the Moon Desert). Then again, at least one story has full-blown weirdness, in that a group of friends all quit their jobs to go sailing round the world on a yacht looking for treasure (Blue Moon). The story is told from the pov of the teenager whom the leader of the group tutors. Teenager wants nothing more than to be one of this romantic band, but leader won't take him. (...) And then there's the complicated little foursome of this man and the kabuki onnagata actor he's mesmerized by and the actor's sister whom he becomes engaged to and then breaks off with (Ochiba no Tegami - Letter in a Fallen Leaf).
