3.0 out of 5 starsMake sure you get the right volume!
By wanda73 on February 20, 2005
Format: Paperback
This book comprises two volumes that bear the same title but are sold separately. Vol. 1 (1329 pages) is devoted to Prose, Vol. 2 (698 pages) covers Poetry, Criticism, and Drama. Make sure you you don't get the wrong volume as I did!!

The book itself wears its 20 years well and for its breadth of coverage continues to be very useful as a general survey of modern Japanese literature. The three (and a half) stars are because the author's own voice tends to flatten the rich and varied body of writing the book treats, making it sound deceptively homogeneous.
