Grass for My Pillow by Saiichi Maruya, translated by Dennis Keene [in AsianWeek]
First published more than 35 years ago, Pillow follows the story of Shokichi Hamada, who escapes military service during World War II by fleeing to the countryside – and by doing so, commits one of the worst betrayals a Japanese citizen could against his country.
