About the author

Toyoko Yamasaki

131 books21 followers
Toyoko Yamasaki (山崎 豊子, real name Sugimoto Toyoko; 3 November 1924 – 29 September 2013) was a Japanese novelist.

A native of Osaka, Yamasaki worked as a journalist for the Mainichi Shimbun from 1945 to 1959 after graduating from Kyoto Women's University in Japanese literature. She published her first story, Noren (1957), a story of a kelp trader, based on the experiences of her family's business. The following year, she won the Naoki Prize for her second novel Hana Noren, the story about the founder of an entertainment group. A major influence on her writings of that period was Yasushi Inoue, who was deputy head of the Mainichi Shimbun's cultural news desk.

Yamasaki wrote some stories based on actual events. For example, Futatsu no Sokoku is derived from the biography of a Japanese American David Akira Itami, and Shizumanu Taiyō is based on the Japan Airlines Flight 123 accident. Several works of hers were featured in films and television dramas.

御巣鷹山にJAL123便が墜落し、歌手の坂本九さんを含む520名が亡くなった時、私は大学生でした。納得のできない原因調査結果に色々な説が流れ、遺族も世間も憤慨しました。根本的な事故原因の一つにJALの企業体質があるのではないかとも指摘され、これを含めて事故原因を究極まで取材して出来上がったフィクションがこの本です。ノンフィクションと思えるほど生々しく、その後のJALの破綻を見ても取材がかなり正確であることがわかります。山崎豊子の真骨頂。事故を知っている方はもちろん知らない人も必ず楽しめます。

在《不沉的太陽:御巢鷹山篇》裡,山崎女士以小說的形式詳實重現1985年日航123號班機空難事件始末,主角恩地元退居不顯眼的配角地位,視角分別在事故調查委員會、航空公司罹難者家屬輔導員、罹難者家屬之間流轉,可能大部份內部資料難以收集的緣故,小說的主要觀點仍是放在同情罹難者家屬,在航空公司面對史上最大空難時內部的推拖鬥爭並無多少著墨。即便如此,家屬驟遇死別的反應,在山崎女士平實記載下,我不禁多次鼻酸。
