Japan: Writer’s widow establishes literature award
1 min read“The culture of reading printed matter is in crisis, so I want to help produce more writers who deserve to be called artisans — just like young Fujimoto did,” said Tokiko Fujimoto, the 80-year-old widow of Naoki Prize-winning writer Giichi Fujimoto.
Tokiko has established a literature award named after her husband, who died about 2½ years ago. Entries for the award will be accepted from May.
