The Paper Door and Other Stories by Naoya Shiga
3.0
Just finished reading this, my first introduction to the author and by and large I enjoyed them, not all but for the most part I did. The stand out ones for me were Kamisori, Han's Crime, A Grey Moon and the titular The Paper Door.
Some of the stories were a chore to get through, mostly the ones that focused on adultery towards the end, especially Kuniko.
Overall it was enjoyable but nothing especially special in my opinion. Some good stories but nothing to shout from the rooftops.
