Description: Now in a beautiful gift cloth edition, a masterpiece of postwar Japanese literature

Brief description: Donald Keene, the author of dozens of books in both English and Japanese as well as the famed translator of Dazai, Kawabata, and Mishima, was the first non-Japanese to receive the Yomiuri Prize for Literature.

Review Quotes: From the point of view of wholesome common sense, Dazai's writings may be regarded as the soliloquies of a deviant.--Yasunari Kawabata
