Recommendation of Japanese literature books

Soseki Natsume, 1

Representative: I'm a cat, San Sibo, a heart, a straw pillow, and a dream of ten nights.

Should I say that I am the most famous cat, represented by Saburo? Love trilogy? And then what? The last trilogy It is a series of works in which Mr. Shu Shi formed his style. Heart is the third part of the latter trilogy. Straw pillow is between novel and prose, with the most beautiful words and meaningful content. Ten Nights of Dreams can most intuitively reflect Sasaki's inner world.

Most recommended: heart. It can be said that Heart is the highest achievement of Shu Shi's novels, because Unfinished Light and Shadow, I'm a Cat are just satirical novels, Sansilang is a little immature, and The Grass Pillow lacks plot and space.

2. Yasunari Kawabata

Representatives: Dancers of Izu, Sleeping Beauty, Snow Country, Ancient Capital, Thousand Cranes.

I haven't seen much of Kawabata Yasunari's works, and it's not my favorite style. I think if Lao She was still alive, Kawabata Yasunari might not win the prize. Kawabata Yasunari and Mishima, Kawabata Yasunari tends to be feminine, Mishima tends to be masculine, but their beauty is extreme, but there are still some similarities in many places.

Most recommended: ancient capital. A good novel has the feeling of fatalism, and fatalism in the ancient capital is extremely charming.

3. Yukio Mishima

Masterpieces: Masked Confessions, Golden Pavilion Temple, Chao Sao, Chun Xue, Running Horse.

Mishima, I have written too many articles, so I won't write anything anymore.

Most recommended: Chun Xue. Can't say why.

4. Junichiro Tanizaki

Masterpieces: Diary of a Crazy Old Man, Rice, Qin Chun Copy, A Dear Mother, and Fine Snow.

Junichiro Tanizaki's style is somewhat close to Japanese naturalism, and the biggest feature of the novel is that he is not shy. Cheating, unrequited love, abnormal psychology and other content are not taboo. But Junichiro Tanizaki's most successful novels don't conform to his usual style.

Most recommended: fine snow. This is a work that does not conform to Kawasaki style. Delicate and wonderful, eloquent narrative makes the story more infectious.

5. Higuchi Ichiyo

Masterpiece: There are not many works.

Few women writers' works can make me read with such relish, and a leaf of articles is very arresting.

Most recommended: "shoulder to shoulder". In fact, it doesn't matter whether you have time to read every little story.

6. Akutagawa Ryunosuke

Masterpieces: Rashomon, Nose and Doubt.

I didn't like Akutagawa's style before, but after reading Mr. Wu's translation of Akutagawa, I suddenly felt that Akutagawa was very good, and the influence of Rashomon on me could not hide his style.

Most recommended: Rashomon. I don't know what to say, this novel is still very shocking.

7.haruki Murakami

Masterpieces: Adventure of Looking for Sheep, Kafka by the Sea, Strange Birds and Norwegian Forest.

In fact, my favorite work is Listening to the Wind, but it is not a masterpiece. Murakami's works are between popular literature and serious literature, both of which have boundaries, which can be regarded as appealing to both refined and popular tastes, but perhaps they are domestic? Lin Jiapu? This writing style seems to mislead many readers. A writer who likes Carver, Chandler and Fitzgerald will never have this style of writing.

Most recommended: Norwegian forests. The books that have influenced more than one generation are the most famous, although they are the least representative works in the village. Different people would peek at some novels when they were students, or Jinlong, or Sinian Anne, or Yi Shu. In short, Norwegian Wood must have appeared in the student days of many readers.

8. Keigo Higashino

Masterpieces: Dedication of Suspect X, Nocturnal Travel, Malicious, After School.

Dongye's reasoning, even if the reasoning elements are not very good, there will always be other bright spots. To tell the truth, I was really shocked by the originality of doubt and malice. Of course, Dongye's satirical short stories are also very interesting, such as black laughter, strange laughter, poisonous laughter novels and super-killing incidents.

Most recommended: "White Night Walk". A novel adapted into a film and television work will always be criticized, and most of them are good novels.

9. nanae Aoyama

Masterpiece: a person's fine weather, window lights, a gentle sigh, leaving other sounds.

My favorite new Japanese writer. None of them.

Most recommended: "One's Fine Weather". In China, the publishing industry has achieved extraordinary success.

10, Xia Shujingzi

Representative works: W's tragedy, angels disappear and evaporate.

I seldom read women writers' books, especially reasoning, but Xia's reasoning is still beautiful.

Most recommended: W's tragedy is a mystery novel with connotation, reversal and originality.
