A. There are no free LEGAL ebooks. It is not fair or legal when someone scans a book and parks it on a pirate website. The estate of Kobo Abe has to decide that they want to give the books away for it to be legal.

Can this source be considered criticism on an author?
Q. It's a book, but I managed to find a preview on Google Books. The one I'm looking a specifically is Abe Kobo on page 2. Is this criticism? I just want to make sure. Thank you.

A. It looks more like a biography to me, but I'm not an expert. Try this website: Good luck!

Japanese literature?
Q. I've recently discovered Japanese author Yoko Ogawa and was more than impressed by her novel Ringfinger (not translated into English (?)) and her short stories. I did not like her rather esoteric novel Museum of Silence (not translated into English (?)), though. I also very much appreciated Kobo Abe's Inter Ice Age 4 and did not like Banana Yoshimoto. On my list are Yasushi Inoue's Hunting Gun, Ice Wall (?), and Black Flood (?) and Murakami's Hard-Boiled Wonderland. Can you recommend any other books by the above mentioned authors (except for Murakami) or other (important) Japanese authors?

A. I am English and live in Japan. I have found many good translations of Japanese books at the local library, most of them published by Tuttle Publishing - here is there address, take a look - https://peripluspublishin ggroup.com/tuttle/ Though the most interesting story I read by a Japanese author was ''The Bridegroom was a Dog'' by Yoko Tawada.

I am not sure what I should read, what I should skip, where to start and so on. Would be thankful for any… [cont.]

A. Firstly, apparently the girl above me can't read. Secondly: Ernest Hemingway is really great. Read what you have and then read the short story "Hills Like White Elephants". It's amazing once it all comes together. Then try out The Picture of Dorian Gray. I had a friend once that got me really into Oscar Wilde, and I will never be able to thank him enough.
