We discuss chapters 14-17 of Inspector Imanishi Investigates by Seicho Matsumoto. With an absurd conclusion to a series of impossible crimes, our struggle between the young and the old leaves a trail of contradictions that seem insurmountable but still manages to satisfy. How did Seicho Matsumoto manage to pull off something this singularly bizarre and compelling, and how has it influenced those who came after him? We also talk with our arch-nemesis Sean Britten about our latest project, the book we’re writing this year! Make sure you find us on social media @FlexandHerds so you don’t miss your chance to screw with our plans.
