Tragic and gorgeous, Heart of Thomas and Kaze to Ki no Uta were written by roommates at around the same time and influenced by the same movies, and it shows. Most notable is their extremely similar subject matter: homosexual love in European boarding schools, circa 1900. In both, a young, idealistic boy transfers into a new school and is drawn to a more worldly and heavy-hearted student. They deal with the meaning of love in its various forms with almost ethereal words and art. Perfect choices for the reader interested in thinking about characters, their emotions, and what they mean in the reader's own lives.
A plucky boy transfers into a boarding school and is drawn to his roommate who possesses a dark past. Both share a complex study of the human heart and life.

Both of them are Shounen Ai mangas of the 70s, which revolutionated the shoujo and BL manga industry.
