Edogawa Rampo (pseudonym of Hirai Taro, 1894-1965) is the
acknowledged grand master of Japan's golden age of crime and
mystery fiction. He is also a major writer in the tradition of
Japanese Modernism, and exerts a massive influence on the popular
and literary culture of today's Japan. The Edogawa Rampo Reader
presents a selection of outstanding examples of his short fiction,
and a selection of his non-fiction prose. Together, they present a
full and accurate picture of Rampo as a major contributor to the
Japanese literary scene, helping to clarify his achievements to the
English-speaking world. All the content of the Rampo Reader is
brand-new to English. His non-fiction work has never been
translated into English before. This is the only place to find a
comprehensive one-volume introduction to the world of Edogawa
Rampo.
