Description
Autobiographical tale in which Mizuki narrates the memories of his childhood in the decade of 1930, in Sakaiminato, a small coastal town at the southwest Japan.

The title character of the book, NonNonBa, is an old mystical and superstitious woman by which Shigeru discovers the world of yokai, supernatural beings and grotesque bestiary of medieval Japanese.

Enjoyed reading it but it was nothing special

I don't understand how this won the best album award in 2007's Angouleme. It's fine but nothing spectacular. It's not deep and it's not something particularly touching or accomplished (storytelling-wise or art-wise). A very straightforward story about the mangaka's childhood and his relationship with an old woman who left a mark on his life with her stories about yokai. It's not whimsical,funny and didn't make me feel any emotions like I thought I would. Nice to read but it ended and I won't bother thinking about it again or re-reading it really.
