In this event, authors Hiromi Kawakami and Adam Ehrlich Sachs discuss writing about specific places, fiction’s relationship to personal truth, and their literary inspirations in a conversation with Motoyuki Shibata, translator and founder of the Japanese journal MONKEY New Writing From Japan. Kawakami’s new novel, Under the Eye of the Big Bird (Soft Skull Press, 2024), ), translated from the Japanese by Asa Yoneda, is featured in Page One in the September/October issue of Poets & Writers Magazine.
