Matsutarō Kawaguchi 川口松太郎
(1 October 1899 – 9 June 1985) was a Japanese novelist, playwright and movie producer active during the Shōwa period of Japan.
..... In 1935, Kawaguchi won the first Naoki Prize for a short story titled Tsuruhachi Tsurujirō.
He followed this with a serialized novel, Aizen Katsura, a melodramatic love story involving a nurse and a doctor, which ran from 1936-1938. The story became a tremendously popular bestseller and gained him considerable fame. It was later made into a movie starring Kinuyo Tanaka and Ken Uehara, and was the basis of numerous television series. .....
