Wakashima, Tadashi and Akiko Nakata, trans. Tomeina Taisho
(Transparent Things) Tokyo: Kokusho Kankokai, 2002.
A translation into Japanese of Nabokov's Transparent Things.
Includes original annotations by the translators and an "Afterword"
by Tadashi Wakashima. ISBN4-336-04029-X
---------------
Probably because the book was favorably reviewed in a leading paper, it is selling better than I expected. (Its Amazon.com.jp sales rank today is 7,727--close to that of *Lolita* in the US Amazon.com! )
