Literature Review from the year 2011 in the subject Literature - Asia, grade: 27/30, , language: Italian, abstract: Il Mystery è un genere che ha avuto una notevole fortuna in Giappone. Una tradizione fantastica e una criminale erano già presenti nel paese orientale, e proprio su queste si sviluppò: introdotto massicciamente in Giappone agli inizi del periodo Meiji (1868-1912), produrrà una vera e propria letteratura poliziesca autoctona sul finire del periodo Taishō (1912-1926). Il romanzo d'investigazione, poiché importato in tutte le sue regole, tratti distintivi e formule, fu sempre causa di sofferenza per gli scrittori orientali, consapevoli del continuo confronto del loro lavoro con il corrispettivo occidentale, indiscutibile metro di paragone. Il presente lavoro si propone di mostrare la nascita e l’evoluzione di un genere che ad oggi può vantare una ricca tradizione. Gli scrittori giapponesi rivisiteranno con una differente sensibilità il già definito mystery e, attraverso una sorta di competizione con i cosiddetti “padri” del suddetto, svilupperanno una grande varietà di forme e un gusto particolare, frutto dell’ibridazione tra le differenti culture. Il risultato sarà la creazione di opere uniche, rimaste fino a pochi decenni prima quasi del tutto sconosciute al resto del mondo per scarsità di traduzioni e non certo per minore valore artistico rispetto alle controparti occidentali.

Seminar paper from the year 2015 in the subject Literature - Asia, grade: 30/30, , language: Italian, abstract: Il mystery è un genere molto diffuso e apprezzato in Giappone. Gli scrittori giapponesi che possono essere definiti autori di mystery, di successo o meno, sono effettivamente molti, come conferma l’alto numero di vendite di tali racconti. Gli autori che acquistano fama e riconoscimenti, ottenendo un posto tra i grandi nomi della letteratura poliziesca, sono in continua crescita. Un nome molto conosciuto in Giappone e poco diffuso all’estero è quello di Nishimura Kyōtarō, esempio davvero interessante dello sviluppo del mystery per aver dato il via a un nuovo filone del genere. Il presente lavoro introdurrà alla vita e ai lavori di Nishimura, soffermandosi su alcune opere ritenute tra le più interessanti. La peculiarità di Nishimura è la precisione con la quale espone i vari dettagli delle vicende narrate, soprattutto nel caso si tratti di date e ancor di più di orari, non a caso i veri protagonisti delle sue storie. Lo scrittore ha dato il via, infatti, al cosiddetto “mystery del viaggio”, dove i casi di crimine che accadono non possono essere risolti se non dopo una approfondita conoscenza degli orari e del funzionamento del trasporto in generale. I mezzi di trasporto sono parte integrante della vita del giapponese moderno e la metropolitana, le stazioni ferroviarie, sono quelle più frequentate dal cittadino medio nella propria quotidianità: basti pensare alle figure dello oshiya (押し屋) o dello hagitoriya (はぎ取り屋) nate in conseguenza del sovraffollamento di persone che popolano le fermate della metro.

In the latest from international bestselling author Keigo Higashino, Tokyo Police Detective Kaga is faced with a very public murder that doesn't quite add up, a prime suspect unable to defend himself, and pressure from the highest levels for a quick solution. In the Nihonbashi district of Tokyo an unusual statue of a Japanese mythic beast - a kirin - stands guard over the district from the classic Nihonbashi bridge. In the evening, a man who appears to be very drunk staggers onto the bridge and collapses right under the statue of the winged beast. The patrolman who sees this scene unfold goes to rouse the man, only to discover that the man has not passed out, he is dead; that he was not drunk, he was stabbed in the chest. However, where he died was not where the crime was committed - the key to solving the crime is to find out where he was attacked and why he made such a superhuman effort to carry himself to the Nihonbashi Bridge. That same night, a young man named Yashima is injured in a car accident while attempting to flee from the police. Found on him is the wallet of the murdered man. Tokyo Police Detective Kyoichiro Kaga is assigned to the team investigating the murder - and must bring his skills to bear to uncover what actually happened that night on the Nihonbashi bridge. What, if any, connection is there between the murdered man and Yashima, the young man caught with his wallet? Kaga's investigation takes him down dark roads and into the unknown past to uncover what really happened and why. A Death in Tokyo is another mind-bending mystery from the modern master of classic crime, finalist for both an Edgar Award and a CWA Dagger, the internationally bestselling Keigo Higashino.

Shortly afterwards, the plan is carried out: the women are found dismembered and buried across rural Japan. By 1979, these Tokyo Zodiac Murders have been obsessing a nation for decades, but not one of them has been solved.

A fiendish, classic locked room murder mystery, from one of Japan's greatest crime writers Loosely inspired by Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None, the brilliant Gokumon Island is perhaps the most highly regarded of all the great Seishi Yokomizo's classic Japanese mysteries. Detective Kosuke Kindaichi arrives on the remote Gokumon Island bearing tragic news--the son of one of the island's most important families has died, on a troop transport ship bringing him back home after the Second World War. But Kindaichi has not come merely as a messenger--with his last words, the dying man warned that his three step-sisters' lives would now be in danger. The scruffy detective is determined to get to the bottom of this mysterious prophecy, and to protect the three women if he can. As Kindaichi attempts to unravel the island's secrets, a series of gruesome murders begins. He investigates, but soon finds himself in mortal danger from both the unknown killer and the clannish locals, who resent this outsider meddling in their affairs.

"This smart and original mystery is a true page-turner... will baffle, surprise, and draw out suspicion until the final few pages. With each book, Higashino continues to elevate the modern mystery as an intense and inventive literary form." —Library Journal (starred review) "Fiendishly clever... Higashino offers one twist after another... Readers will marvel at the artful way the plot builds to the solution." —Publishers Weekly (starred review) *** Acclaimed bestselling novelist Kunihiko Hidaka is found brutally murdered in his home on the night before he's planning to leave Japan and relocate to Vancouver. His body is found in his office, a locked room, within his locked house, by his wife and his best friend, both of whom have rock solid alibis. Or so it seems. At the crime scene, Police Detective Kyochiro Kaga recognizes Hidaka's best friend, Osamu Nonoguchi. Years ago when they were both teachers, they were colleagues at the same public school. Kaga went on to join the police force while Nonoguchi eventually left to become a full-time writer, though with not nearly the success of his friend Hidaka. As Kaga investigates, he eventually uncovers evidence that indicates that the two writers' relationship was very different that they claimed, that they were anything but best friends. But the question before Kaga isn't necessarily who, or how, but why. In a brilliantly realized tale of cat and mouse, the detective and the killer battle over the truth of the past and how events that led to the murder really unfolded. And if Kaga isn't able to uncover and prove why the murder was committed, then the truth may never come out. Malice is one of the bestselling—the most acclaimed—novel in Keigo Higashino's series featuring police detective Kyochiro Kaga, one of the most popular creations of the bestselling novelist in Asia.

In una cala rocciosa della baia di Hakata, i corpi di un uomo e di una donna vengono rinvenuti all’alba. Entrambi sono giovani e belli. Il colorito acceso delle guance rivela che hanno assunto del cianuro. Un suicidio d’amore, non ci sono dubbi. La polizia di Fukuoka sembra quasi delusa: niente indagini, niente colpevole. Ma, almeno agli occhi di Torigai Jutaro, vecchio investigatore dall’aria indolente e dagli abiti logori, e del suo giovane collega di Tokyo, Mihara Kiichi, qualcosa non torna: se i due sono arrivati con il medesimo rapido da Tokyo, perché mai lui, Sayama Ken’ichi, funzionario di un ministero al centro di un grosso scandalo per corruzione, è rimasto cinque giorni chiuso in albergo in attesa di una telefonata? E perché poi se n’è andato precipitosamente lasciando una valigia? Ma soprattutto: dov’era intanto lei, l’amante, la seducente Otoki, che di professione intratteneva i clienti in un ristorante? Bizzarro comportamento per due che hanno deciso di farla finita. Per fortuna sia Torigai che Mihara diffidano delle idee preconcette, e sono dotati di una perseveranza e di un intuito fuori del comune. Perché chi ha ordito quella gelida, impeccabile macchinazione è una mente diabolica, capace di capovolgere la realtà. Non solo: è un genio nella gestione del tempo. Con questo noir dal fascino ossessivo, tutto incentrato su orari e nomi di treni – un congegno perfetto che ruota intorno a una manciata di minuti –, Matsumoto ha firmato un’indagine impossibile, ma anche un libro allusivo, che sa con sottigliezza far parlare il Giappone.

Japan's greatest classic murder mystery, translated into English for the first time In the winter of 1937, the village of Okamura is abuzz with excitement over the forthcoming wedding of a son of the grand Ichiyanagi family. But amid the gossip over the approaching festivities, there is also a worrying rumour – it seems a sinister masked man has been asking questions about the Ichiyanagis around the village. Then, on the night of the wedding, the Ichiyanagi family are woken by a terrible scream, followed by the sound of eerie music – death has come to Okamura, leaving no trace but a bloody samurai sword, thrust into the pristine snow outside the house. The murder seems impossible, but amateur detective Kosuke Kindaichi is determined to get to the bottom of it. Seishi Yokomizo (1902–81) was one of Japan's most famous and best-loved mystery writers. He was born in Kobe and spent his childhood reading detective stories, before beginning to write stories of his own, the first of which was published in 1921. He went on to become an extremely prolific and popular author, best known for his Kosuke Kindaichi series, which ran to 77 books, many of which were adapted for stage and television in Japan. The Honjin Murders is the first Kosuke Kindaichi story, and regarded as one of Japan's great mystery novels. It won the first Mystery Writers of Japan Award in 1948 but has never been translated into English, until now.
