I adore this when I read an american article about a Japanese writer and it makes me believe I and the rest of Europe are located in East Asia.
"Yoko Ogawa, a respected writer in Japan, is just becoming known to Western readers, thanks in large part to scholar Stephen Snyder (...)
Ogawa's introduction to the American literary scene was 2008's "The Diving Pool," a collection of three novellas that were first published in Japan more than 20 years ago."
Only speaking of our little part of japanese Europe, Yoko Ogawa has been translated in french, german, italian, spanish, russian,... and she's been a star -- and I weight my words -- in the french literary world for 15 years now.
You have never been to (insert Wild Wild West trailer voiceover) The West... (end of insertion) if you haven't been exfiltred to the USA...
