Rico em descrições da cidade que foi a capital do Japão por cerca de mil anos (794-1868), Kyoto, de 1962, foi uma das últimas obras finalizadas pelo autor antes de sua morte dez anos mais tarde. Ambientado no período pós-guerra, o livro narra a trajetória de Chieko, filha adotiva de um comerciante de quimonos, Takichiro, e sua esposa, Shige. Chieko é uma jovem que trabalha na loja da família e a vê em processo de falência, assim como vários outros pontos comerciais da antiga capital japonesa, em razão de mudanças nos valores culturais, agora fortemente influenciados pelo Ocidente. Durante um passeio pela aldeia de Kitayama, região montanhosa na periferia de Kyoto onde são cultivados cedros, Chieko acidentalmente conhece sua irmã gêmea, Naeko. Separadas ainda quando bebês, criadas em ambientes hierarquicamente distantes entre si, as irmãs agora tentam se aproximar, e se deparam com a inevitabilidade do destino, o afloramento da sexualidade e o surpreendente curso do acaso. Kawabata desenvolveu uma extensa e profunda pesquisa para mergulhar na cultura, nos costumes e no dialeto da cidade mais tradicional do Japão, revelando na obra aspectos da região de Kyoto desconhecidos mesmo de japoneses. As líricas descrições de Kawabata sobre a cidade, sua mescla de antigas e modernas construções, suas datas festivas e belezas naturais, inspiraram duas versões para o cinema.

Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and bestselling author John Hersey's seminal work of narrative nonfiction which has defined the way we think about nuclear warfare. “One of the great classics of the war" (The New Republic) that tells what happened in Hiroshima during World War II through the memories of the survivors of the first atomic bomb ever dropped on a city. "The perspective [Hiroshima] offers from the bomb’s actual victims is the mandatory counterpart to any Oppenheimer viewing." —GQ Magazine “Nothing can be said about this book that can equal what the book has to say. It speaks for itself, and in an unforgettable way, for humanity.” —The New York Times Hiroshima is the story of six human beings who lived through the greatest single manmade disaster in history. John Hersey tells what these six -- a clerk, a widowed seamstress, a physician, a Methodist minister, a young surgeon, and a German Catholic priest -- were doing at 8:15 a.m. on August 6, 1945, when Hiroshima was destroyed by the first atomic bomb ever dropped on a city. Then he follows the course of their lives hour by hour, day by day. The New Yorker of August 31, 1946, devoted all its space to this story. The immediate repercussions were vast: newspapers here and abroad reprinted it; during evening half-hours it was read over the network of the American Broadcasting Company; leading editorials were devoted to it in uncounted newspapers. Almost four decades after the original publication of this celebrated book John Hersey went back to Hiroshima in search of the people whose stories he had told. His account of what he discovered about them -- the variety of ways in which they responded to the past and went on with their lives -- is now the eloquent and moving final chapter of Hiroshima.

Everyday Life in Traditional Japan paints a vivid portrait of Tokugawa Japan, a time when contact with the outside world was deliberately avoided, and the daily life of the different classes consolidated the traditions that shaped modern Japan. With detailed descriptions and over 100 illustrations, authentic samurai, farmers, craftsmen, merchants, courtiers, priests, entertainers and outcasts come to life in this magnificently illustrated portrait of a colorful society. Most works of Japanese history fail to provide enough details about the lives of the people who lived during the time. The level of detail in Everyday Life in Traditional Japan allows for a nearly complete picture of the history of Japan. In fascinating detail, Charles J. Dunn describes how each class lived: their food, clothing, and houses; their beliefs and their fears. At the same time, he takes account of certain important groups that fell outside the formal class structure, such as the courtiers in the emperor's palace at Kyoto, the Shinto and Buddhist priests, and the other extreme, the actors and the outcasts. he concludes with a lively account of everyday life in the capital city of Edo, the present-day Tokyo.

Murakami tells the true story behind an act of terrorism that turned an average Monday morning into a national disaster. In spite of the perpetrators' intentions, the Tokyo gas attack left only twelve people dead, but thousands were injured and many suffered serious after-effects. Murakami interviews the victims to try and establish precisely what happened on the subway that day. He also interviews members and ex-members of the doomsdays cult responsible, in the hope that they might be able to explain the reason for the attack and how it was that their guru instilled such devotion in his followers. 'Not just an impressive essay in witness literature, but also a unique sounding of the quotidian Japanese mind' Independent
