Review # 1 was written on 2017-11-17 00:00:00 James Childs It's simply amazing what you think you must read when you are 29. Which was about when I bought this 1300 pager. I even fully intended to read the next volume. And twenty years later I finally get around to reading it, because I don't want to pack it and move it again to a new house. Obviously a volume of great importance when learning about Japanese literature without being able to read Japanese. Not quite the page turner I had hoped for, I much rather just read the literature, albeit in translation, than a description of the literature but no matter, I did enjoy this read.
