Just finished this. Expected a bit more out of the last part

I never read it.
Is on my to-read list alongside with Thousand Cranes by Kawabata

I thought the same when I finished it but in retrospect I don't think I would have changed the last part at all. I think the big thing is Sensei was born in a time where people did that sort of thing. I think when the general Nogi or whatever his name died it was a sign to Sensei that he too was outdated.

the book probably wouldn't be the same if Sensei read Nietzsche and changed his life around.

What specifically do you mean about wanting more to the last part? I was kind of expecting more from the main character at the time like finding out what happened to his dad but now I believe its better left to our imagination. After the bomb that Sensei dropped I didn't really care about the young guys life

Taking me ages to read it in Japanese, I can barely enjoy it.

Do not neglect Master of Go

Going to read it as well.
Wasn't sure if I would. I wanted to read Kawabata, but the only book I could get in a user bookstore nearby was Thousand Cranes.
I'll hit the internet to buy Master of Go too!
