«Au temps de Botchan», volume 4, is the seinen manga by Natsuo Sekikawa and Jirô Taniguchi, published by Casterman in paperback (312 pages, in French).
Japan, early 20th century: a country dominated by the figure of the emperor and a conservative military government. Young socialists and anarchists, around Kôtoku Shûsui, clash with a distrustful power and suffer disproportionate repression. The series portrays a society in transformation and the founders of modern Japanese literature.
Fourth volume of the series «Au temps de Botchan», published in 2025; the French edition preserves the original Japanese reading direction.
Aimed at seinen manga readers and those seeking a historical and literary approach to early 20th-century Japan.

Jiro Taniguchi was a Japanese manga writer/artist. His works belong to the gekiga, or "dramatic pictures", genre of manga. In France he was knighted a Chevalier of the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres in 2011.
