		The special focus of J. Martin Holman's collection is Kawabata's early short fiction, texts written on either side of ''The Dancing Girl of Izu.'' Section 1 follows up the classic short story with four brief works crucial for any understanding, in terms of style and content, of how the young Kawabata shaped his preternatural skills.
		A 20-year-old student is hiking the roads of the Izu Peninsula when he decides to join up with a small group of traveling performers.
		Girls grow up so fast.'' Yet when the boy questions the woman about where the performers are likely to stay that night, her reply is redolent of caste prejudice: ''There's no way to tell where people like that are going to stay.

	Spring 2005 Course Offerings: Undergraduate
		In this class, we will look at “dancing” and at “girls” as terms that combine a tradition of artistic expression (sometimes sacred or ceremonial, sometimes profane and professional) with a host of political issues (class distinctions, race and national identity, labor laws, definitions of gender and sexuality).
		Dancing girls, as we will see in films starring Josephine Baker and Anna May Wong, are shaped in part by the pressures of race and class, and must negotiate a balance between exoticism, voyeurism, and the value of the spectacle.
		One tiny slip—a man lifting another man in the pas de deux?—illuminates the tensions and anxieties that keep the dancing girl on her toes, as in the edgy choreography of Mark Morris.

		Contrary to this positive outlook on Kawabata's story, I found the relationship between the dancing girl and the main character to be of an odd nature.
		One part of the story that I found interesting was when the dancing girl was not permitted to go to the movie alone with the boy.
		It would be not proper for a girl of a lower status to go out with a boy of higher status.

		The Izu Dancer is one of the first works by Kawabata which brought him notoriety as a literary figure.
		Specifically, it looks at Naoji first as a college graduate and his contempt for his elder brother's marriages to lower class girls, then it examines how Naoji comes to learn how his elder siblings unusual stories that led to their marriages may have been true.
		This includes Kawabata's Palm of the Hand Stories "Autumn Rain," "Socks," and "Beyond Death." From the author's forward, "Autumn Rain" is the story of a girl living next door to death, her fragility and her mistrust of grown men contributing to her unique beauty.

		A number of them are justly famous in Japan, but only one, "The Dancing Girl of Izu," has received wide circulation in translation, in a slightly shortened version by the great Edward Seidensticker, first published in the 1960s and available in a variety of editions over the years.
		"The Dancing Girl," like many other stories included here, contain strong autobiographical elements, but these are used not for their own sake, as possible self-revelations, but as a means to suggest the difficulties of penetrating toward any kind of ultimate truth.
		This conviction, so important to an understanding of Kawabata's basic artistic stance, is most clearly revealed in the second story, "Diary of My Sixteenth Year." The story contains three layers: the narrative itself, an afterword appended in 1925, and a second afterword attached still later.

		Comment: This is an interesting mix of Yasunari Kawabata's early work, well before he was Japan's literary superstar, and well before the works that would ultimately win him the Nobel prize.
		Comment: "The Dancing Girl of Izu and Other Stories" is an odd collection of sorts, mixing an elegant, straight-forward short story together with some autobiography and a fluttering of palm-of-the-hand tales.
		Comment: It's not the writing smooth as flowing water and traveling cloud, nor the superfluous decoration of the wordings and twisted story plots that hint the merit of Kawabata's `Dancing girl of Izu'.

		Nobel laureate Kawabata is best known in the West for such novels as Snow Country and Thousand Cranes, yet his short stories, written over 50 years, seem to contain his essence as a writer.
		I mean after reading 20 pages I had finished something like 8 stories, but as i continued to read the stories started to have a larger impact on me especially the story "Bamboo-Leaf Boats" This little story was about a young girl whose fiance had not returned from WW II.
		She had lived her life thinking that she would never married because she was crippled by polio, but a marriage had been arranged with this young man. But he didn't return from the war, so what she saw as a silver lining in a dark cloud turned into more cloud.
