OKAMOTO KANOKO

OKAMOTO KANOKO
(1889–1939)
   Okamoto Kanoko was an author and scholar of Buddhism. She took an interest in literature at a young age and, after a visit with Yosano Akiko, began writing tanka poetry for magazines, such as Myojo (Venus). Okamoto turned to Jodo Shinshu Buddhism when trouble arose in her personal and family life, and many of her novels reflect Buddhist themes, such as ancestral karma. Okamoto died early of a brain hemorrhage, and many of her works were published posthumously.
