| Publisher Description: This is a materialist-feminist, psychoanalytic analysis of a modern Japanese literary trope-the dangerous woman, linked to archaisms and magical realms and found throughout the Japanese canon-in the works of three 20th-century writers: Izumi Kyoka (1873-1939), Enchi Fumiko (1905-86), and Nakagami Kenji (1946-92). |
