An Introduction to the Lineage of Japanese Literature and Critical Reviews of Its Masterpieces

Japanese literature is currently experiencing an unprecedented boom overseas, particularly in Europe and the United States, with sales of translated works rapidly increasing. Its reputation continues to grow, with Japanese authors receiving major international literary awards one after another.

This book is designed for the growing global audience of Japanese literature enthusiasts.

Originally written in English in 2003 by renowned cultural critic Donald Richie, these essays have been newly edited and compiled into this volume.
