About the author
Public information about Wu Xi is limited; only the Chinese byline and the twelve titles held in the catalog are known. Judging from these selections, Wu Xi's editorial or curatorial work centers on foreign literature, spanning both classics and mystery and detective fiction. Representative titles include Japanese literary works such as No Longer Human and Convenience Store Woman, as well as gentler, more healing novels like The Kamakura Stationery Shop, The Sparkling Life, and The Sun and the Girl, along with a selected short-story collection by Renjo Mikihiko. The chosen books often carry a sense of everyday life and emotional comfort while also touching on the darker sides of human nature, reflecting a sustained attention to contemporary Japanese literature and classic translations.
