About This Novel
The picture of the end of the century written by a famous chronicler, a Japan Press Association Award-winning work, was rated as one of the "100 Non-fiction Books to Understand Modern Times" by Iwanami Shoten. It is a representative non-fiction series that influenced post-war Japan and has been best-selling in Japan for many years. "Wives' Love" not only describes the family life of couples and corporate social issues, but also introduces the psychoanalysis of psychological counselors to analyze the causes of marital crises of several interviewees from the perspective of their original families, including the psychological roots of problems such as the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, parent-child relationship, etc. It is sharp and interesting. "The Well-Fed Poor" is a masterpiece by the famous Japanese journalist Shigeo Saito. It is considered a classic work describing social problems in Japan's bubble economy era. With the rapid development of the economy, Japan has finally emerged from the post-war famine era when it was struggling to survive. However, the improvement of living standards has not reduced people's anxiety and insecurity. It has only changed from "poverty in poverty" to "poverty in prosperity." In this new era where people no longer have to worry about food and clothing, people who are still trapped in the extreme state of poverty, busyness and debt are called "the underfed poor". They are not only "corporate warriors" supporting Japan's economic development, but they are also victims of this brutally competitive society.
