Japan's preeminent modern novelist, Natsume Soseki (1867-1916), may
be better known for his works of fiction Kokoro, Botchan, and I Am
a Cat, than for his last novel, Meian, uncompleted at his death,
which remains something of an enigma -- a neglected masterpiece. A
simple plot summary doesn't do it justice: the marriage of Tsuda
and O-Nobu is threatened when Kobayashi and others begin dropping
hints about another woman. Tsuda departs on a trip to rendezvous
with the woman in question, Kiyoko, his former fiancee. The novel
is a study of human character, a marriage tested, and what it means
to be an individual in the modern world.
