I’ll be starting this book today. It’s been a few months since I’ve read fiction.

It’s originally in Japanese but translated to English by Albert Novick.

“Otohiko Kaga’s Marshland is an epic novel on a Tolstoian scale, running from pre-World War II period to the turbulence of 1960s Japan.”

It seem really interesting and I’m looking forward to it. I also really like the cover design.
