Ōgai Mori

Mori Ōgai, pseudonym of Mori Rintarō (born February 17, 1862, Tsuwano, Japan—died July 9, 1922, Tokyo), one of the creators of modern Japanese literature.

The son of a physician of the aristocratic warrior (samurai) class, Mori Ōgai studied medicine, at first in Tokyo and from 1884 to 1888 in Germany.

It represented a marked departure from the impersonal fiction of preceding generations and initiated a vogue for autobiographical revelations among Japanese writers. Ōgai’s most popular novel, Gan (1911–13; part translation: The Wild Goose), is the story of

Murakami's first work, the short novel Almost Transparent Blue, written while he was still a student, deals with promiscuity and drug use among disaffected Japanese youth.

Thanks for visiting my Author's Page and for your interest in my work. I am an Indian-American journalist and author. I write about a wide range of topics but my main interest is in human stories. I believe literature illuminates the human condition, and I love talking to people (I hate calling them "interviews"), understanding their lives, and translating their stories into the written word.

My first book, "India Becoming," captured stories from a changing and rapidly modernizing India; it tried to portray all the ambivalence and "creative destruction" of economic development. "Better to have Gone" is about love, faith, death, and the noble but often tragic--and destructive--search for utopia. It's set in the intentional community of Aurovi
