Review

[An] insightful, carefully researched study... Highly recommended.

Richly textured... cogently argued, lucidly written, and offers the reader insights on both theoretical and biographical levels.

(Nanette Gottlieb Monumenta Nipponica )

Sirens of the Western Shore takes a fresh and detailed look at the topic of vernacular style in Meiji literature.

(Sarah Frederick Journal of Japanese Studies )

Review

No other book has ever elucidated as brilliantly the crucial role played by translation in the formation of modern literature.
