To See The Best Before I Have Properly Begun Would Be Somewhat Premature.

I Couldn't Speak Japanese Very Well, Passport Regulations Were Changing, I Felt British And My Future Was In Britain. And It Would Also Make Me Eligible For Literary Awards. But I Still Think I'm Regarded As One Of Their Own In Japan.

I Find Japanese Books Quite Baffling When I Read Them In Translation. It's Only With Haruki Murakami That I Find Japanse Fiction That I Can Understand And Relate To. He's A Very International Writer.
