Long-awaited by teachers and students, Read Real Japanese Fiction presents short works by six of today’s most daring and provocative Japanese writers. The spellbinding world of Hiromi Kawakami; the hair-raising horror of Otsuichi; the haunting, poignant prose of Banana Yoshimoto; even the poetic word-play of Yoko Tawada – whatever a reader’s taste, he or she is sure to find something of interest and value in this book, suitable for students at the intermediate level and above.As in real Japanese novels, the text on each page runs from top to bottom and from right to left. Each double-page spread features translations of all the difficult passages. In the back of the book, moreover, is a built-in Japanese-English learner’s dictionary and a notes section covering issues of nuance, usage, grammar and culture that come up in each story. Best of all, the books comes with a free audio CD containing narrations of the stories, performed by a professional voice actress.

Take Your Japanese to the Next Level
For anyone whose Japanese is stuck at the intermediate level, this is your chance to change that. You get writing by modern (and celebrated) writers with useful phrases explained on the side, a glossary of terms, and a CD to hear it pronounced. It is a great idea and should improve your reading and your comprehension.

Really good
This really is the book you need if you intend to read japanese. I personnaly don't have the money to ever go to Japan, so the goal I am trying to achieve is to read Japanese fluently. I bought quite a few bilingual books (not that much available) and this one is my favourite. First, because the short story chosen are excellent, and made me discover very interesting authors, and second because the translations, explanations and furigana are made in a way to help but not prevent from doing at least a little work yourself.

最高だ
The book arrived safe and undamaged! It's in very good condition for a used book. I've always liked fiction and it's a great book for self-learning because of the english translation on every page. Thank you!

Nivel Intermedio, muy completo
Libro muy completo para leer japonés con pequeños relatos/cuentos de ficción. Está justo en mi nivel (N3-N2). Ni demasiado simple o infantil (de estos tengo muchos), ni demasiado avanzado. Incluye: - 6 relatos de autores japoneses en japonés (lectura vertical) - traducción párrafo a párrafo (una página con el texto japonés, y la siguiente con la traducción) Al otro lado tiene: - Diccionario japonés-inglés específico para las lecturas (no necesitas tener un diccionario al lado) - Notas para aclarar algunas estructuras gramaticales que vas encontrando. Las notas gramaticales me han encantado ya que he aprendido varias cosas nuevas durante las lecturas. Junto a la APP Todaii es de los mejores recursos para la lectura que he encontrado hasta ahora. En cuanto pueda adquiriré el otro volumen (con relatos de ensayo).
