| NOTA |
(★)(Twice a year, Maanoa presents new fiction, poetry, essays, and art from America, Asia, and the Pacific. In ´Silence to Light´, over forty contributors deepen our understanding of Japanese literature, culture, and history. ´Silence to Light´ commemorates the sixtieth anniversary of Japan´s attack on Pearl Harbor and the seventieth anniversary of the outbreak of World War II in Asia, in 1931. Through powerful short stories, poetry, manga, and memoirs, events such as the Manchurian Incident, the Rape of Nanking, the Battle of Okinawa, and the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki are presented in a variety of voices, all deeply affecting. Photographs, letters, and testimonials add further detail to these stories of ordinary people caught up in war´s madness.／ Japanese authors include Mishima Yukio, Dazai Osamu, Hayashi Kyoko, and Tamura Ryuichi. Plus Americans Jeanne Wakatsuki Houston, Gladys Swan, Donald Richie, Mary Yukari Waters, and others.／ ▼CONTENTS／ ■ESSAYS／ ●Belated Eulogy : A Family Album (Shuzo Uemoto) ●The Canary That Forgot Its Song (Ishii Shinpei) ●A Lifetime of Images : The War Years in Japan (Francis and Irene Haar) ●from Japan Journals (Donald Richie) ●In My Absence (Lisa Ottiger)／ ■DOCUMENTS／ ●Last Letters (Kamikaze Pilots)／ ●Testimonials (Himeyuri Student Nurses) ●Fifty Years of Silence (Three Taiwanese Women)／ ■FICTION／ ●Echoes (Hayashi Kyoko) ●Peonies (Mishima Yukio) ●The Death of the Cat (Gladys Swan) ●December 8 (Dazai Osamu) ●from Fire Horse Woman (Jeanne Wakatsuki Houston) ●Aftermath (Mary Yukari Waters) ●Pulling My Leg (Kijima Hajime) ●The Man Who Sold Braces (Yoko Ogawa)／ ■FILME SCRIPT／ ●Hiroshima through Light (Ogata Keiichi)／ ■MANGA ／ ●from Barefoot Gen (Keiji Nakazawa)／ ■POETRY／ ●Four Thousand Days and Nights (Tamura Ryuichi) ●Lukouchiao (Uda Rei) ●from Requiem (Ishigaki Chookoo) ●Birthmark (Sagawa Aki) ●Half a Century (Sone Yoshi) ●Three Poems (Ayukawa Nobuo) ●Six Poems (Ko Un)／ ■REVIEWS／About the Contributors) |
