Hi Lidewij
You linked to a different edition in your post with a different ISBN. This may be why your request was skipped as page count requests are usually done by new librarians or librarians without much spare time.
World cat doesn't give a page count for this one. If you just confirm that your page count doesn't include advertising, a preview from another book or blank pages right at the end I'll be happy to add this for you

Thanks so much for having a look! I didn't realise it was possible to link to a specific edition, but will remember that next time.There is 1 blank sheet (2 pages) at the end, so I had a look to see if I could find it online anywhere. Amazon seems to list it as 432: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Breasts-Eggs...

No, we don't count blank pages right at the end, so I have changed the page count to 430 & corrected the book format.
I note that the award listed is in a mixture of Japanese & English & has seventh place. I will leave this for a Japanese speaking librarian to look at.
