Visions of Desire

- Tanizaki's Fictional Worlds

About Visions of Desire

No Japanese writer was more obsessed with desire than Tanizaki Jun'ichiro (1886-1965). This book argues that Tanizaki's novels do not merely end in the reification and contemplation of cultural ideals but rather problematize the desire behind such ideals.
