The Kamogawa Food Detectives Movie: Flavors of Memory
Introduction by Joji Matsuoka When I first read The Kamogawa Food Detectives, I didn’t see a mystery story — I saw a meditation on time.

Satantango Analysis: László Krasznahorkai in Discussion
Introduction by László Krasznahorkai When I write, I do not think of style or structure. I think of life as it really is: unbroken, relentless, without pause.

László Krasznahorkai’s Satantango Reimagined in America
