Essays and Essays (br) The 28 th Shogakukan Non-Fiction Grand Prize Winner : Yamatani, Tokyo, known as one of Japan's leading doya towns. Motouji Tadashi Yamamoto and his wife Mie, who established the private hospice "Kibo no Ie" in 2002, became a model for the film 『 Ototo and 』 (directed by Yoji Yamada) and were featured in the NHK 『 Professional 』. As such, they gained attention as an embodiment of "ideal care." However, the present "Kibo no Ie" does not include Mr. and Mrs. Yamamoto. Mr. Yamamoto was dismissed as the director of the facility, received nursing care in Yamatani, and lived while receiving public assistance. Mie disappeared the day after the 『 Professional 』 broadcast, and is missing. Why did Mr. Yamamoto move from being in charge of nursing care to being in receipt of public assistance? Why did Ms. Mie go away? In pursuing Mr. Yamamoto's half life, he looked at the transformation of the town of Yamatani and at the essence of a special care system. The 28 th Shogakukan Non-Fiction Grand Prize Winner : Selection Committee's Highest Praise! Hiromi Hoshino -- "Beautifully depicted the unique tolerance of Yamatani, with a vague line between helping and helping sides." Kazuya Shiraishi -- "I have learned again what it means to look at humans." Mizuki Tsujimura -- "I have never taken a stance of denying something or someone while being humorous." However, in the 2010 s, the media's coverage of Mr. Yamamoto had drastically changed. In fact, when I heard about the story from the author Nami Shunji, I wanted to know more about his half life. This book, "『 My Home : Yamatani 』," looked at Yamatani's care system through Mr. Yamamoto's light and shadow, and became a reportage to consider Japanese nursing and welfare issues. I would like many people to read it. 2000 Schindler Tadashi Yamamoto
