"Torrance’s study displays mastery of an enormous body of works of literature, journalism, statistics, and scholarship; the compilation of detail will make the book indispensable to social and cultural historians as well as specialists in Japanese literature..Historical, anthropological, and statistical material is employed effectively and broadly to explicate works of literature and an entire literary and social milieu."
"A critical study of impressive range and depth, surely the richest study of a single Japanese author yet produced in our field."
