'Soseki is the representative modern Japanese novelist, a figure of truly national stature' - Haruki Murukami 'Kokoro is exactly what you would ask a novel to be... Soseki manipulates every detail with the same thrilling mastery'' - Spectator 'Sparsely populated, simple but perfect... it is a melancholy but stoical study in loneliness'' - Sunday Telegraph 'This elegant novel...suffuses the reader with a sense of old Japan' - Los Angeles Times
