"Natsume Soseki" is Toyotaka Komiya's full-scale biography and critical study of his teacher, drawing on both a disciple's memory and close reading of documents. It follows Soseki not only as a central figure of Meiji literature but also as teacher, family man, and thinker, becoming a classic work in Soseki studies.

Soseki's disciple Toyotaka Komiya reconstructs the whole figure of the writer from memory and documentary evidence.
