Book of the Week: Ash
Masaya Saito is best-known for his expert and evocative translation of Saito Sanki’s Kobe Hotel, but this nearly unnoticed short volume of his own work (TELS Press, 1988) carries an elusive and astringent flavor all its own, and well worth cultivating.
You can read the entire book in the THF Digital Library.
