Kawabata > all post-War Japs

>>7539175
not at all controversial, what's there to talk about?
>>7539303
true, but don't say that on /lit/, no one here reads any japs besides dazai, murakami and pretending to read mishima

>>7539310
>pretending to read mishima

>>7539175
Fuck off, frog posting faggot

>>7539310
How about Soseki Natsumie, or Tanizaki Junichiro?

>>7539331
Soseki is pre war and Tanizaki is majority pre war, including his most influential/popular work (s) like makioka

I study Japanese literature, and have read Kafu Nagai, Saikaku Ihara, etc. yet I still do not know who Murakami is, or why /lit/ talks about him as much as /lit/ does.

So John Green for people who want to feel worldly?

>>7539364
Pretty much.

he's much more interesting than John green and wind up bird was OK but he really should've limited himself to like 2-3 books max instead of 10 of the same book. His fans are more insufferable than his works to be fair.
