Puff, puff, puff
Imagine this:
"Smokers have disappeared all over the world, except in Japan. Even in that despised, cigarette-underdeveloped country, an anti-smoking movement has begun to gear up at last.
"...Finally, cigarette shops were closed down and nonsmoking activists burned down the few shops that dared to open doors in the dead of night. In parks, signboards reading 'No dogs or smokers' were erected.
"Reports that many smokers had been killed by passers-by and policemen in broad daylight began to appear in the media. A few surviving smokers engaged in gun battles against no-smoking activists who had broken into their homes, but their days were limited....
If you are still a smoker, "The Last Smokers," a novel written by Yasutaka Tsutsui, may not seem just a bizarre, humorous fantasy.
