Who am I?
My name is William Varteresian. I’m a freelance Japanese-to-English translator and editor with a master’s in East Asian Studies (but for all intents and purposes, just Japanese literature). The history and development of Japanese genre fiction is my passion. I’d like to use this blog to explore a range of books that I think are worth thinking about, from widely available classics to influential novels that have never been translated and lesser-known titles that are still worth a look.
Updates sporadically when I have time.
