Kenzaburo Oe E scritor y ensayista japonés, premio Nobel de Literatura y probablemente el mejor novelista de la posguerra. Oé nació en una remota aldea de montaña en Shikoku, localidad que aparece con frecuencia en su obra, y creció en tiempos de guerra. En 1954 ingresó en la universidad de Tokio y en 1958 ganó el prestigioso Premio Akutagawa por su relato La presa , que describe la custodia en un pueblo de un aviador negro prisionero. Su primera novela extensa, Memushiri kouchi (1958), ratificó su éxito. Establecido como escritor importante de la posguerra, escribió sobre la condición alienada del Japón moderno, al tiempo que apoyó causas de izquierda, a pesar de su amistad con Yukio Mishima. En 1963, el nacimiento de un hijo retrasado mental y una visita a Hiroshima causaron una nueva evolución en su escritura, que culminó con sus obras maestras Un asunto personal (1964) y El grito silencioso (1967). Su obra, de estilo complejo y contenido intelectual, aborda la crisis existencial, la historia y la identidad cultural. Sus novelas posteriores tratan temas antinucleares y ecológicos en un estilo moderno más libre. Destacan, además, en su vasta obra, Las aguas han inundado mi alma Juegos contemporáneos (1979) y la novela de ciencia ficción La torre del tratamiento (1990). En 1994 le fue concedido el Premio Nobel, siendo el segundo escritor japonés en recibirlo. ©

Nobel Prize Winner: Oe Charms With Tales of His Past By Alex Ling One of this century's greatest writers, Nobel Prize winner Kenzaburo Oe, graced the Annenberg School of Communications Feb. 14. Oe, a Japanese expatriate now living in Princeton, N.J., was greeted with a thundering round of applause from a multi-ethnic and multigenerational audiencedespite showing up ten minutes late. "My apologies," stated Asian and Middle Eastern Studies Professor William LaFleur, who later went on to introduce Oe. "But we had to stop by the house of [Edgar Allen] Poe, one of Mr. Oe's great influences." Somehow, the over-capacity crowd did not seem to mind. Oe (pronounced "oh-eh"), after all, is the recipient of both the 1994 Nobel Prize in literature for his body of work, as well as the prestigious Akutagawa Prize (Japan's equivalent to the Pulitzer), an honor he received in 1958 for a short story he penned entitled "The Catch." Oe later went on to write two books: "A Personal Matter," a semi-autobiographical novel, dealt with the birth of his mentally handicapped son Hikari (who overcame his handicaps to become a composer); "Hiroshima Notes," dealt with his feelings about the atomic bomb, the survivors of Hiroshima and the Japanese imperial family's involvement in World War II. Despite these impressive credentials, Oe in person is far from imposing. Stylishly attired in a camel-colored suit and blue dress shirt, the bespectacled author comes across as a soft-spoken, down-to-earth gentleman with ample charm and a storyteller's skill at retelling the past.

Conversations with History: Institute of International Studies, UC Berkeley Photo by Jane Scherr This interview is part of the Institute's "Conversations with History" series, and uses Internet technology to share with the public Berkeley's distinction as a global forum for ideas. Our guest is the distinguished Japanese writer Kenzaburo Oe. His prolific body of novels, short stories, and critical and political essays has won almost every major international honor. Oe's achievements as a writer committed to both literary and humanitarian causes were recognized in 1994 when he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. In works such as A Personal Matter, The Silent Cry, A Quiet Life, Hiroshima Notes, and A Healing Family, Oe's art moves from the personal to the political, exploring how the individual, in confronting life's tragedies overcomes humiliation and shame to "get on with life," and in so doing, finds personal dignity and a renewed sense of his responsibility to his fellow man. Mr. Oe is on the Berkeley campus today to give the Maruyama Lecture, sponsored by the Center for Japanese Studies and the Townsend Center for the Humanities.

OE KENZABURO: THE STRUGGLE FOR SELF OE'S COMMAND "I appreciate the darkness, and it is important for me and my work. I feel I must always go to the next stage in me, deeper and deeper and darker, and then I must write about it. I feel I must conquer the darkness by perusing the very dark things in me, through writing about them. Always I am writing myself, always." This quote is from an interview Oe Kenzaburo had in 1995 after receiving the prestigious Nobel Prize for Literature in 1994. The sentiments above are the reasons that Oe is such a deep and emotional writer to experience. You can feel yourself plunging into the depths with him as he "peruses the very dark things." He is filled with undeniable emotion and as a reader, so are you.

A review by Allen Gaborro An Echo of Heaven by Kenzaburo Oe Kodansha International, 1996 $25 (hardcover) ISBN: 4-7700-1986-6 As an articulate defender of the weak and the oppressed, nobel-prize winning author Kenzaburo Oe possesses a keen insight into their most intimate thoughts and emotions. His penchant for highly-personal explorations into the human soul is a theme that lies at the core of his stories. Combining the penetrating skill of a psychoanalyst with the heartfelt sympathy of an altruist, Oe delves beyond his characters' facades for a deeper comprehension of their tortured psyches. A writer who has espoused liberal causes throughout his career, Oe's works sit on the cutting edge of postwar Japanese literature. He has been compared to the likes of Norman Mailer and Jean-Paul Sartre for his literary realism and nonconformity towards Japan's deep-rooted aesthetic traditions. An Echo of Heaven is his latest work. Seen through the narrative of a character designated "K", it is an engrossing tale of spiritual angst and emotional anguish, and how one woman's tragedy forces her to confront both. Through a process of painful but restorative introspection, the novel's protagonist, Marie Kuraki, tries to make sense of the traumatic suicides of her two sons. Marie's two adolescent sons are fated to captive lives: the elder Michio is confined to a wheelchair as a result of a traffic accident, while the younger Musan has been mentally and physically retarded since birth. Michio, once a lively, outgoing youth, refuses to accept the permanence of his paralysis. Consequently, he convinces his brother to join him in a pact of suicide by impressing on him "the horrors of living in this world, for himself, as a paralytic, and for Musan, as a mentally handicapped child."
