Description
I started to take interest in reading Japanese literature. It started when I want to read a Haiku poem by Basho. I read a couple of penguin classics books on Japanese poetry, then I got some recommendations on Japanese authors:
The Pillow Book by Sei Shōnagon
The Diary of Lady Murasaki (Penguin Classics) by Lady Murasaki
The Narrow Road to the Deep North and Other Travel Sketches (Classics) by Matsuo Basho
Kokoro by Natsume Soseki
I borrow those books from my local library. So I have been reading them during the week. They are fascinating and educational. I learn a alot about Japanese history go and insight into the past.
I then was looking up some Japanese literature on YouTube. I watched some top recommendations on a few Japanese literature/ novels. There are a few recommendations I have taken interest in reading. I will try to borrow them from my local library.
