The USJETAA Japanese Reading Group helps advanced beginner and intermediate level students improve their reading skills. Each month we will look at a short reading from Aozora Bunko, a repository of public domain literature. Participants should attempt to do the reading on their own and come to the meeting with any questions. We will spend the meeting each month reading the assignment sentence by sentence to understand how the Japanese is working.

From April to June, we'll be reading マスク (Masks) by Kikuchi Kan, who was a famous playwright and novelist. He created the Bungeishunju literary magazine and started the Akutagawa and Naoki Prizes. Let's read this story from 1920 about - masks! 

This month we are continuing where we left off last time. The link to the reading is here: https://www.aozora.gr.jp/cards/000083/files/60714_74627.html
