  • Summary, etc. - "The author was sent to Luzon, Philippines as a Japanese Imperial army soldier in 1943. He received the Naoki Prize for his first novel about war experience in Luzon "The Valley of Luzon". Although this book also was written about his war experience in Luzon, the book is focusing on personal feeling of each of soldiers in the battlefield." - Masuko Takehisa
  • Summary, etc. - 筆者は1943年、大日本帝国陸軍の兵士としてフィリピンルソン島に送られた。1957年、最初のルソン島での戦争体験小説「ルソンの谷間」で、彼は直木賞を受賞した。この本もまた、ルソン島での戦争体験を描いた小説であるが、戦場の兵士個人の感情に焦点を当てて描いている。- Masuko Takehisa
