"Contemporary Japanese Literature brings together works in translation from nearly two dozen major postwar Japanese writers-including Mishima, Tanizaki, Abe, Kawabata, and Kanai-in a literary gathering that is unmatched in its breadth. The stories, poetry, a play-even scripts from film directors Kurosawa and Ozu-cut through genre and issue to capture the feel of post-1945 Japanese culture: a bold, unsettling modernism thrust upon a traditional society."--publisher website
