Details: An unsuccessful novelist and typist. He uses a typewriter even in this day and age, preferring an old-fashioned style and showing little interest in modern trends. He has extremely keen hearing and can distinguish subtle voices and sounds. He is intensely obsessed with writing, immediately turning daily events and people he meets into material for his stories.
