It's been 70 years since one of my favorite writers passed away. His name is Niimi Nankichi (or Nankichi Niimi)(新美何吉).He was born in Handa city near my home town. Since he died when he was 30 years old, this year is the 100th anniversary of his birth. I graduated from the same high school that he attended.His short stories, especially "A Fox called Gon," are very much loved by many people.
I was touched by Gon's kindness in the story, and when he was shot, I couldn’t hold back my tears when I read it in my childhood.(2013.7.22)
“ごんぎつね”の作者、新美何吉のストーリーをたまたまラジオの英語会話番組で英語版を聞きました。今年生誕100年、没後70年のその新美南吉と同じ高校を私は卒業しているので、作品は大人になってからも何度も読み、ずっと好きでした。
