The Global Japanese Studies Model Unit will organize the “Fujino Kaori Symposium,” with attendance by the writer.
Fujino Kaori is a Japanese novelist whose work has won Bungakukai Prize and Akutagawa Prize. Fujino participated in the International Writing Program at the University of Iowa in 2017. Fujino has published Iyashii tori (2008), Ohanashishiteko-chan (2013), Tsume to me (2013), Fainaru gāru (2014), Doresu (2017), Pieta to toranji (2020), and so on.
