Book Summary
This fantastically varied and exciting collection celebrates the great Japanese short story, from its modern origins in the nineteenth century to the remarkable works being written today. Short story writers already well-known to English-language readers are all included here - tanizaki, akutagawa, Murakami, Mishima, kawabata - but also many surprising new finds. From Yuko tsushimas flames To yuten sawanishis filling up with sugar, from shinichi hoshis shoulder-top Secretary To banana yoshimotos bee Honey, the Penguin book of Japanese short stories is filled with fear, charm, beauty and comedy. Curated by Jay Rubin, who has himself freshly translated several of the stories, and introduced by Haruki Murakami, this book will be a revelation to its readers.
