“An
important author who portrays troubled individuals caught between the
demands of society and the horror of solitude. Till now, his work has been
hard to find in the West, though he has received major literary prizes in
his homeland.” “An
ideal book for inclusion in survey courses on modern Japanese literature.
. . . a useful resource for courses on Japanese anthropology and
contemporary society.” “This
is a major and long-overdue addition both to the corpus of contemporary
Japanese literature in English and to critical commentary on that
corpus.” Erik R. Lofgren in World Literature Today Published by Center for Japanese Studies, University of Michigan |
