About this book

This volume with contributions on the literature of the Heisei era (1989-2019) contains analyses of contemporary Japanese literature. It presents authors such as Shimada Masahiko, Abe Kazushige, Tawada Yôko and Shôno Yoriko, who use sophisticated, self-reflective language and subversive arguments against systems of power to criticize the times in the context of the question of national identity and transculturality.
