The work of the outstanding Japanese writer Ryunosuke Akutagawa is one of the most striking and unusual phenomena in 20th-century world literature. The central theme of his works, written with subtle taste and humor, is the infinite universe of the spirit and the mysteries of human psychology. Akutagawa drew material for his short stories from historical chronicles, medieval anecdotes, and collections of ancient legends. Akutagawa believed that only through the exceptional and unexpected can one reveal the true movements of the soul. The intricate interweaving of fiction and reality, the depth of psychological analysis, the paradoxicality of his judgments, and the gentle irony make Akutagawa's works true masterpieces.
