Japanese Literary Fiction 🇯🇵👤💭

From the provocative and challenging to the emotional and quiet, Japanese literary fiction tends to be nuanced, introspective, and minimalistic. These books contain layered cultural commentary and may lean on psychological, surreal, or fantastical elements to convey their message.

Hello all🤗
I am currently on a bit of a short story kick, can anyone reccommend me their favourites? 🙈
Bonus points if they’re weird, uncomfortable, or make no sense (think “The Nose” by Nikolai Gogol) 🧚♀️
Thank you in advance🤗

I know a lot of people will say JKR, Colleen Hoover or other very big problematic authors for obvious reasons, but if there're any more niche ones or weird reasons why you can't or refuse to read them, tell me.
Mine would be Mia Ballard bc whether the allegations that she is assisted with A.I are true or false, I saw the counter of how many times the word 'sharp' was in Shy Girl and....I cannot handle that.
