Morgan Giles: Tokyo Ueno Station

We have Morgan Giles, English translator of Yu Miri's masterful Tokyo Ueno Station, a story that is both a tearjerker and a study in understatement and subtly. Naturally, we talk about ghosts, adopting your boyfriend, the cool 9-11 and a penguin who fell in love with an anime girl. This is how you're supposed to do literary criticism.
