Hardcover. Condición: Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Good. First American edition and first English-language edition of Hiroshi Noma's major postwar Japanese novel, originally published in Japan as Shinkū Chitai and later translated into French as Zone de vide. This English translation was made from the French by Bernard Frechtman. Drawing heavily upon Noma's own wartime experience, the novel presents the harsh world of the Imperial Japanese Army through the experiences of ordinary soldiers subjected to institutional cruelty, rigid hierarchy, punishment, and dehumanization. The story centers on a soldier who returns to his unit after imprisonment and finds himself once again trapped within the oppressive machinery of military life. Noma's treatment of the Japanese military establishment made the novel an important contribution to postwar Japanese literature and to literary examinations of authoritarianism and war. The English edition was published by The World Publishing Company in 1956 and comprises 317 pages. Bibliographic records identify this as the first edition and confirm Bernard Frechtman as translator. Detailed Condition Good hardcover in Good original dust jacket; former library copy.

Significance / Collector Appeal Hiroshi Noma was one of the important literary voices of postwar Japan. Zone of Emptiness (Shinkū Chitai) is among his best-known works and is notable for its unsparing portrayal of the Japanese military establishment during World War II.
