What is Japanese literature like? In this video I will talk about Japanese fiction by discussing four unique novels and short stories written some of the greatest Japanese novelists. This samples from Japanese authors will help you understand Japanese literature and Japanese fiction. Japanese literature has a rich history so these stories will give you a snapshot view of the culture and its people.
00:00 intro
1:00 Botchan by Natsume Soseki
4:08 In A Bamboo Grove by Ryunosuke Akutagawa
6:00 The Dancing Girl of Izu by Yasunari Kawabata
7:32 Convenience Store Woman by Sayaka Murata
This is part of a Reading the World in which I will be reading books from every country on earth. Join me in my journey as we read and talk about unique novels and stories. Perhaps travelling is more exciting but through reading novels and stories you get to know a few characters and people form each country on a much more intimate level which may not be possible if you visited that country.
I would very much appreciate if you subscribed, shared and liked my videos.
