Sanshiro by Natsume Soseki

'Even bigger than Japan is the inside of your head. Don't ever surrender yourself - not to Japan, not to anything'

A shy, unworldly young student has his eyes opened to Tokyo's bustling metropolis, in this delicate, bitter-sweet work of innocence and experience from Japan's foremost modern novelist.

Natsume Soseki is the representative Japanese novelist -- Haruki Murakami
Natsume Soseki (1867-1916) is often considered the greatest modern Japanese novelist. In 1900, his government sent him to England for two years as 'Japan's first Japanese English literary scholar', but he had a miserable time there. Returning to Japan, he wrote his greatest novels, including Botchan, Sanshiro and Kokoro, as well as essays, haiku, and kanshi.
