Villon's Wife

[Michael Kerpan]

Thanks to both of you.
 
I wonder if I might not have Keene's Modern Japanese Literature lying around the house somewhere
 
Speaking of Donald Keene, he will be a guest of honor at the Japan Society of Boston's upcoming annual dinner..

How was the film?  I'm looking forward to seeing it.
There is a great resource at the Japan Foundation for finding translations:
http://www.jpf.go.jp/e/culture/media/exchange/translationsearch.html
A search there showed translations in German, Spanish, Polish, Italian, Hungarian and Czech, as well as English.
Here is the citation for the English version:
"Villon's Wife" translated by Donald Keene, in New Directions 15, 1955. pages: 176-195
best,
Alex
