I'm a huge fan of Japanese literature, which is why I really enjoy searching for authors who have not gotten much exposure in English and translating those stories to make them available for a broader audience to enjoy.

My latest book is from Yoshio Toyoshima––an author who has received little attention in the English world so far––but I found his dark, introspective tales truly unique and thought-provoking.

Fans of Dazai Osamu ("No Longer Human") may enjoy these stories; incidentally, Dazai was a close, respected friend of Toyoshima, and one of the stories in this collection is rumored to be about him.

It's available now for only $0.99 on Amazon:
