Nejishiki (ねじ式, Screw-Style, The Stopcock); Garo Zoukangou 1968-06
Said to have come from a dream, the 23 page work follows a youth who first appears wading out of the ocean when an artery on his arm is severed by a jellyfish leading him to desperately hunt for a doctor. Laden with symbolic images of rural poverty, industry and the Pacific War, the work spoke to the alienated 1960s youth, and made Tsuge's reputation as a cult personality.
