PUBLISHER'S SUMMARY:

Professor Ueda explores the mystery of suicide among Japan's reigning modern literary masters and asks how these writers have, in turn, both reflected and helped to shape the modern consciousness and self-image of the Japanese people. With grace and dramatic pathos, he examines his subject as he considers 4 well-known Japanese novelists in the light of traditions and legacies of the past.
