Dempow Torishima was born in Osaka. He graduated from Osaka College of Art and worked as a freelance designer and illustrator. He won the Sogen SF Short Story Prize with his debut fiction “Sisyphean” (Kaikin no to) in 2011. Since then, he has been writing a series of stories in the same far-future world of Sisyphean, which was published as Sisyphean and Other Stories in 2013. The book was chosen as the best SF of 2013 in SF Magazine, won the Japan SF Award, was nominated for the Seiun Award in 2014.
"Dempow Torishima's Sisyphean is stunning. A
game-changer. Possibly the first truly visionary novel of this
decade for SF."—Jeff VanderMeer, best-selling author
of Annihilation.
"Torishima’s knotty, dense, hilarious, scary masterpiece is a book
whose prose can be savored endlessly, and whose Kakaesque biopunk
conceits prove that no strangeness which the universe can confer
upon humanity will destroy the essential drives, loves and
ambitions of the species."
