Mimei Ogawa

Mimei Ogawa

Mimei Ogawa (小川 未明, Ogawa Mimei, born Ogawa Kensaku in April 7, 1882, in Joetsu, Niigata, died May 11, 1961, in Tokyo), also called Ogawa Bimei,[1] was an author of short stories, children's stories, and fairy tales. Because he was one of the first authors to publish children's stories under his own name, Ogawa has been called Japan's Hans Christian Andersen,[2] an appellation he shares with Kurushima Takehiko.
