"There's an amazing number of good Japanese writers but in the West we tend to only know the same five," Carpenter said, "including Haruki Murakami, whom many people don't even think of as especially Japanese." Thanks to this project more than 90 works have already been translated into English, French, German and Russian, and Carpenter has completed two: "Mubanso" ("A Cappella") by Mariko Koike and Noboru Tsujihara's "Jasmine," which she describes as "a love story and a kind of ghost story that spans decades: old Shanghai, Tiananmen Square, the Kobe Earthquake. A terrific read."
