When he died from tuberculosis at the age of 31, Kajii Motojiro had written only twenty short stories. Yet his life and work, it is argued here, sheds light on a significant moment in Japanese history and adds to our understanding of how modern Japanese identity developed. This book brings together English translations of nearly all his completed stories with an analysis of his literature.
