Junichiro Tanizaki is the Japanese author of the book "Etsia's Murder". He is one of the great writers of modern Japanese literature and perhaps the most famous Japanese novelist after Natsume Sōseki.
Some of his works present a rather shocking world of sexual issues and destructive erotic obsessions. Others, less passionately, depict the dynamics of family life in the context of rapidly changing Japanese society in the 20th century.
His stories are often told in the context of the search for cultural identity, where the structures of "the West" and "Japanese tradition" are placed together. In general, it can be said that his works are complex, unique, reckless, and provocative.
