Natsume Soseki: Superstar of World Literature
An interesting look at a foreigner making a name for himself in Japan through a photo being featured on today’s news section of Yahoo! Japan:
The man in the photo is British author Damian Flanagan, who has released a new book in Japanese called 世界文学のスーパースター夏目漱石 [Natsume Soseki: Superstar of World Literature]. Apparently the book is an exploration of Flanagan’s interest in novelist Natsume Soseki’s works.
You can find out more about Damian Flanagan and his other works, most of which deal with translating or commenting on Natsume Soseki, on his official website.
