The CodeX Cantina | Kappa by Ryunosuke Akutagawa - Short Book Summary, Analysis, Review @TheCodeXCantina | Uploaded September 2023 | Updated October 2024, 7 minutes ago.
Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! Was there a theme or meaning you wanted us to talk about further? Let us know in the comments below! Some call it a novella, and some call it a book. We all should call it a masterpiece. "Kappa" by Ryunosuke Akutagawa is a piercing psychological tale from a person alienated from society. Is it a commentary on Taishou Era Japan? Let's talk about it today!
