The eleven stories included in this volume suggest the breadth of the author's literary production, ranging from parodies of classical Japanese literature to cosmopolitan avant-garde works, from quasi-autobiography to science fiction. Her subversive fiction defies established definitions of ""literature"", ""Japan"", ""modernity"" and ""femininity"", and represents an important intellectual aspect of modern Japanese women's literature.
