Lament in the Night collects two remarkable novellas by the author Shosun Nagahara, translated from the Japanese for the first time. The title novella, originally published in 1925, follows itinerant day laborer Ishikawa Sazuko as he prowls the back alleys and bathhouses of Los Angeles, looking for a meal, a job or just someone to hold onto. The second novella follows a young mother working her way through bars and nightclubs after being abandoned by her gamblingaddicted husband. Written in a deadpan tone that is both evocative and precise, this dazzling exercise in 1920s naturalist noir promises to become a classic of American literature. This firstever English language publication of Lament in the Night opens up a whole realm of American literature that has been woefully underpublished and unexplorednamely, the literary heritage of nonEnglishspeaking immigrants in America. Nagahara was influenced by many Western writersespecially Knut Hamsun, whose work he translated into Japaneseand his novels combine the gritty sensibility of Los Angeles noir with elements of Japanese traditional storytelling and epistolary techniques.
