Welcome to Jim Luce’s exploration of the literary world, where poetry and prose serve as bridges between cultures, generations, and human experiences. Drawing from his academic background as an East Asian Studies major with a specialty in contemporary Japanese literature—including studies at Waseda University in Tokyo—and influenced by his father’s distinguished career as a translator of contemporary French literature at Miami University, with guest assignments at Harvard and the Sorbonne, Luce brings both scholarly depth and a truly global perspective to his literary analysis. Through his thoughtful commentary and reviews, he examines works that span from the streets of Haiti to the philosophical landscapes of Japan, from the Victorian salons of Henry James to the modern voices of Asian American identity, illuminating how literature continues to shape our understanding of ourselves and our interconnected world while celebrating both established masters and emerging voices who deserve wider recognition.
