Foreign Literature
Kadokawa Shinsho / "So, I'm sorry, but please fight for freedom. I'm not very interested in it." From two World Wars to the Vietnam War, a controversial work inscribed in the history of literature as a banner of anti-war 『 Roman Holiday 』 『 Black Bull 』 『 Spartacus 』 … Dalton To Lambo, a rare playwright who produced many historical masterpieces while being banished from Hollywood by the Red Hunt. A controversial work published during the Second World War that caused a stir as an extreme anti-war novel. A long-awaited new translation! A young man, Joe, who lost sight, hearing, taste, and sense of smell and limbs due to the shelling on the French front during the First World War. He lost everything and felt sorry and hopeless. What hope did he find in order to connect with the world again? Commentary ・ Togo Koji "Banned"? There is a book describing that this book was "banned" because it had not been circulated in the United States for a long time. In fact, "banned" was not true, but it continued to be out of print. During the Second World War, Togo Lambo, fearing that it would be used by the extreme right-wing and pro-Nazi forces, thought that the book should not be republished until the end of the World War.
