Kojima Nobuo is best-known in English for his outstanding novella, "Amerikan sukuuru" (1954, "The American School"), which earned the Akutagawa Prize that year.
Influenced by Gogol and other giants of Russian literature, Kojima\'s style and technique immerse the reader in the doubt.
Strongly affected by World War II and the Postwar era, his style evolved into a powerful, often painfully honest satire depicting the Japanese male as a Milquetoast, under the thumbs of women and society in general.
