Mone Kamishiraishi begins distributing the audiobook of her essay collection ``Various'', which she reads aloud: ``It was a valuable experience, even if it was a bit embarrassing.''

■Mone Kamishiraishi reads 50 essays and novels, “Introduction” and “Instead of Afterword” as audio content lasting approximately 3 hours.

Mone Kamishiraishi’s first essay collection “Various” (NHK Publishing) was released in September 2021 and has a circulation of 70,000 copies. It will be available as an audiobook read by the author on Audible from December 6th.

In the audio book “Various” distributed on Audible, Mone Kamishiraishi reads 50 essays and a handwritten novel, “Introduction” and “Instead of an Afterword” as audio content for approximately 3 hours.

You can listen to Kamishiraishi’s warm voice listening to your essays anytime, anywhere, such as while commuting to work or school, in a little free time, or in a relaxing time before going to bed.

In addition to subscription, it will be distributed as two separate items: a special edition with special audio and a regular edition.

■Books (with original postcards) will be sold at the tour venue to commemorate the audiobook distribution.
The book “Various” will be sold at each venue of “MONE KAMISHIRAISHI “yattokosa” Tour 2024-25《kibi》”. As a bonus, you will receive an “original postcard” that uses cuts not published in the book and is only available here.

■Mone Kamishiraishi comment
Before proofreading, I read the manuscript aloud every night to check the final content.
I never thought I would be reading it in front of a microphone in the studio three years later!
Thank you to everyone who picked up the book.
I hope this audiobook will help you make new discoveries and encounters.
