Les fleurs du passé #4

The fourth volume of Haruka Kawachi's Natsuyuki Rendezvous adaptation arrives wrapped in a breathtaking cover: a blue-eyed figure emerges from an enveloping garden of roses, lilies, peonies, and delicate white blossoms, cradling a small spray of flowers with quiet tenderness. The riot of reds, pinks, and oranges surrounding the serene central face creates a mood that is at once lush and melancholy — beauty pressing in from every direction. If the earlier volumes drew you in, this 2014 Komikku Éditions release promises to deepen the emotional bloom considerably.
