「ギャア――。ウワアッ。助けて助けて……カンニンして下サアイ。僕はこの船を降りますから……どうぞどうぞ……助けてエ助けてエッ……」

昭和二年頃の十月の末だったっけ……
足音高くブリッジに登って行った俺は、船長(おやじ)の背後でワザと足音高く立停まった。
「おはよう……」と声をかけたがは見向きもしない。何しろ船長仲間でも指折の変人だからね。何か一心に考えていたらしい。俺は右手に提げた黄色い、四角い紙包を船長の鼻の先にブラ下げてキリキリと回転さした。
「御註文のチベット紅茶です。やッと探し出したんです」
船長(おやじ)はやっとびっくりしたらしく首を縮めた。無言のまま六尺豊かの長身をニューとこっちへ向けて紅茶を受取った。
「ウウ……機関長か……アリガト……」とプッスリ云った。コンナ時にニンガリともしないのがこの船長の特徴な-

ちえ子さんは可愛らしい児でしたが、勉強がきらいで遊んでばかりいるので、学校を何べんも落第しました。そしてお父さんやお母さんに叱られるごとに、「ああ、嫌だ嫌だ。どうかして勉強しないで学校がよく出来る工夫は無いかしらん」と、そればかり考えておりました。
ある日、どうしてもしなくてはならぬ算術をやっておりましたが、どうしてもわからぬ上にねむくてたまりませんので、大きなあくびを一つしてお庭に出てみると、白い寒椿がたった一つつぼみを開いておりました。ちえ子さんはそれを見ると、「ああ、こんな花になったらいいだろう。学校にも何にも行かずに、花が咲いて人から可愛がられる。ああ、花になりたい」と思いながら、その花に顔を近づけてにおいをかいでみました。

Story
私は嬉しい。「あやかしの鼓」の由来を書いていい時機が来たから……
「あやかし」という名前はこの鼓の胴が世の常の桜やつつじとちがって「綾になった木目を持つ赤がし」で出来ているところからもじったものらしい。同時にこの名称は能楽でいう「妖怪(アヤカシ)」という意味にも通っている。
この鼓はまったく鼓の中の妖怪である。皮も胴もかなり新らしいもののように見えて実は百年ばかり前に出来たものらしいが、これをしかけて打ってみると、ほかの鼓の、あのポンポンという明るい音とはまるで違った、陰気な、余韻の無い……ポ……ポ……ポ……という音を立てる。
この音は今日迄の間に私が知っているだけで六、七人の生命を呪った。しかもその中の四人は大正の時代にいた人間であった。皆この鼓の音を聞いたために死を早めたのである。
これは今の世の中では信ぜられぬことであろう。それ等の呪われた人々の中で、最近に問題になった三人の変死の模様を取り調べた人々が、その犯人を私――音丸久弥と認めたのは無理もないことである。私はその最後の一人として生き残っているのだから……
私はお願いする。私が死んだ後にどなたでもよろしいからこの遺書を世間に発表していただきたい。当世の学問をした人は或は笑われるかも知れぬが、しかし……
楽器というものの音が、どんなに深く人の心を捉えるFailed to add items

ある国にオシャベリ姫というお姫さまがありました。生れ付きおしゃべりで、朝から晩まで何かしらシャベッていないと気もちがわるく、きいてやる人がいないと大層御機嫌がわるいのです。
ある朝、オシャベリ姫は両親の王様とお妃様におしゃべりを初めました。
「お父様お母様、昨夜は大変でしたのよ。あたしがひとりで寝ていますと、黒ん坊が寝床のところへ来まして、わたしに短刀をつきつけてきたのです」
「それから、二人の女中が機織室で糸を紡いでたから中の様子を見ますと、壁に一列ずつ沢山の蜘蛛がズラリと並んでいるのです」
王様はお驚きになりましたが、どちらも夢の話だと分かると、王様は大層腹をお立てになりました。
「この馬鹿姫め。お前みたようなよけいな事をオシャベリする奴はいない。そんなことをオシャベリしたら石の牢屋へ入れてしまうぞ」
「いいえ。これからが本当なのです。今までのは今度の本当におもしろいお話をするためにお話ししたのです」
そうしてオシャベリ姫は又お話を初めました。
「女中に、今お話しした二つの夢のお話しをしてきかせました。二人の云うことには、何でも短刀と蜘蛛の夢を見るといいお婿さんが来ると、みんなが云うのだそうです。けれども、夢を見たことが相手のお婿さんにわかるとダメになるのだそうです。ですから女中は私に、そのFailed to add items

Story
五郎君はお菓子が好きでしようがありませんでした。御飯も何もたべずにお菓子ばかりたべているので、お父様やお母様は大層心配をして、いくら五郎さんが泣いてもお菓子を遣らない事にしました。
お父様とお母様がお出かけになったある日のこと。兄さん夫婦から「五郎殿へ」と書いた郵便が届きました。鼻を当てかいでみると、中から甘い甘いにおいがしました。
五郎さんはもう夢中になって開いて見ると、それは思った通りお菓子で、ドロップ、ミンツ、キャラメル、チョコレート、ウエファース、ワッフル、ドーナツ、スポンジ、ローリング、ボンボン、そのほかいろいろ、ある事ある事……。一箱ペロリと食べてしまった五郎さんは、そのまま何喰わぬ顔で蒲団にもぐり込んでしまいました。
やがて何だか恐ろしく苦しくなって来ましたので、どうしたのかと眼を開いて見ますと、最前喰べたお菓子連中が、めいめい赤や青や紫や黄色や又は金銀の着物を着て、男や女の役者姿になって大勢いならんでいるのがはっきりと見えました。

「草川の旦那さん。大変です。起きて下さい。モシモシ。起きて下さい。私は深良一知(ふからいっち)です」
暑い暑い七月の末の或る早朝であった。山奥の谷郷村駐在所の国道に面したホコリだらけの硝子戸をケタタマシク揺ぶりながら、一人の青年が叫んだ。
それは見るからにここいらの貧乏百姓の児と感じの違った、インテリじみた色の白い鼻筋のスッキリとした美しい青年であった。慌てて走って来たものと見えて、手拭浴衣の寝巻に帯も締めない素跣足が、灰色の土埃にまみれている。……と……駐在所の入口になっている硝子戸が内側からガタガタと開いて、色の黒い、人相の悪い顔に、無精鬚をぼうぼうと生した、越中ふんどし一つの逞ましい小男が半身を現わした。
「どうしたんか」
「アッ。草川の旦那さん」
草川巡査はねむそうな眼をコスリコスリ青年の顔を見直した。
「何だ。一知じゃないかお前は……」
「はい。あの……あの……両親が殺されておりますので……」
「何……殺されている? お前の両親が……」
「はい。今朝、眼が醒めましたら、台所の入口と私の枕元に在る奥の間の中仕切が開け放しになっておりましたから、ビックリして奥の間の様子を見に行ってみますと、お父さんと、お母さんが殺されております。蚊帳(かや)が釣ってありますので、よくわかりませんがFailed to add items

おごそかに明るくなって行く鉄工場の霜朝。徐々に……徐々に……工場内に重なり合った一切の機械がめざめはじめる。人間……狂人……超人……野獣……猛獣……怪獣……巨獣……それらの一切の力を物ともせぬ鉄の怒号……如何なる偉大なる精神をも一瞬のうちに恐怖と死の錯覚の中に誘い込まねばおかぬ真黒な、残忍冷酷な呻吟が、到る処に転がりまわる。
今までに幾人となく引き裂かれ、切りちぎられ、タタき付けられた女工や、幼年工の亡霊を嘲る響き……
このあいだ打ち砕かれた老職工の頭蓋骨を罵倒する声……
ずっと前にヘシ折られた大男の両足を愚弄する音……
すべての生命を冷眼視し、度外視して、鉄と火との激闘に熱中させる地獄の騒音……
私は、私の父親が頓死をしたために、無経験のまま、この工場を受け継がせられた……そうしてタッタ今、生れて初めての実地作業を指揮すべく引っぱり出された。
「ナアニ。やって見せる。児戯に類する仕事だ……」と、私は腕を組んだまま悠々と歩き出した。
「ウワッ。タタ大将オッ」という悲鳴に近い絶叫が私の背後に起った……又誰かやられたか……

King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.
