About this title

Synopsis

Build your Japanese reading skills with carefully graded lessons and authentic literary selections

A Japanese Reader is a classic intermediate-to-advanced language resource designed to help students develop confidence reading modern written Japanese. Beginning with the fundamentals of the Japanese writing system, the lessons gradually introduce grammar, vocabulary and increasingly challenging reading passages drawn from literature, newspapers and essays.

The book features authentic selections from renowned twentieth-century Japanese authors including Mishima, Akutagawa and Kawabata, alongside readings exploring Japanese history, religion, philosophy, politics and everyday life.
