Kajii Motojirō (1901-1932), nato a Osaka, nel 1924 studia all’Università Imperiale di Tōkyō dove lancia la rivista Aozora in cui pubblica il suo racconto d’esordio Remon. Nella sua breve vita letteraria pubblica diciotto racconti su Aozora e altre riviste. Ammalatosi di tubercolosi, si cura in un sanatorio della penisola di Izu, dove frequenta Kawabata Yasunari e altri scrittori che ne ammirano il talento letterario. Dopo un breve periodo a Tōkyō, dal 1928 torna a Osaka per l’aggravarsi della malattia, dove muore nel 1932. I suoi racconti ottennero recensioni entusiastiche da scrittori e critici contemporanei come Kawabata Yasunari e Kobayashi Hideo. La prosa elegante e i temi delle sue opere hanno goduto di un rinnovato interesse nel Giappone del dopoguerra.
