The Box men!: Japanese literature for a European audience

The Box men!: Japanese literature for a European audience

Dastardly tales of modern day toilings!

D.David Croot

The box men takes its influence from a peculiar novel of Kobo Abe’s, aptly titled The Box Man.

The box men or Or how I learned to love the box, is an unusual type of modern day horror. It holds a mirror up to us, as well as society at large. It does not preach and is written in a rather disturbing manner. The manner mainly being satire and tiny jabs of humour that keep the story grooving.

These people are unusual, disturbed but still they have to live on and learn and find ways to communicate with one another, no matter their curious difficulties.

It is my humble honour to introduce the first box man who does not appear to know what a joke is…make of that what you will.
