Tokyo: Kofusha, 1976. First Printing. Wraps. 8vo, wraps with dust jacket, very good. 256 pp, text in Japanese. An uncommon book and OCLC locates a single holding. Kamisaka was born as Yoshiko Niwa in Tokyo on June 10, 1930. Her first work, Shokuba-no gunzo (People at a Place of Work), based on her experiences as a worker for Toyota, was published in 1959 and won a prize for works by new authors. Her best-known work is ""Keishu Nazare-en" about a facility for Japanese widows of South Koreans. Other works dealt with Sugamo Prison, the Battle of Iwo Jima and vivisection experiments conducted by the Japanese on prisoners of war. This appears to be a personal statement about Japanese feminism. Very good / very good. Item #H29986
