Atsuko Sakaki delves into the intricate relationship between photography and literature in modern Japan, focusing on the works of prominent authors such as Tanizaki Jun’ichirō, Abe Kōbō, Horie Toshiyuki, and Kanai Mieko. Through a careful analysis of poetic imagery and narrative structure, she uncovers how these writers incorporate the visual medium of photography to enhance the materiality of their storytelling.
By exploring the interplay between text and image, Sakaki illustrates the ways in which traditional literary techniques are transformed by the influence of photography. This thought-provoking examination invites readers to reconsider the significance of visual representation in literature and its impact on narrative form and meaning in a modern context.
