Ramunne Ikki(ラムネイッキ) is a now out-of-print short stories compilation of Sansuke Yamada(山田参助).
Some of his previous works are newly published by major publishers after he got more famous after his Areyo Hoshikuzo. But this one is not yet.
Ramune refers a bottled lemonade widely sold throughout Japan.
Ikki means "at once" or in this context, "bottoms up," I guess.
The book is described as "hard cover" in Amazon Japan.
And one of the customers reviewed that "cover is not the only thing that is hard..."
Maybe Japaneses also refer something extreme as "hard" as Koreans do.
This is how "Ramune" looks like.By the way, I want the book so badly.
Maybe Mr. Yamada re-release the book.
