Rashomon Gates
Ryunosuke Akutagawa is one of... those who turned Japanese prose into a world classic, merging the subtlety of his native culture with the traditions of European literature: in his honor, a prize for the most talented debutants is awarded in Japan, and the adaptation of his story "In a Grove" ("Rashomon" by Akira Kurosawa) won an "Oscar" in 1952.
Akutagawa is an unparalleled master of short prose. In just a few pages, he encapsulates entire eras, immersing us in the history of Japan, and the dramatic depth inherited from Pushkin and Dostoevsky. In this collection, you will find warm stories of gratitude, as well as poignant novellas about wine, revenge, or judgment – each gripping from the first line and holding on for a long time.
