Japanese ebooks at Aozora Bunko
Posted on 01. Dec, 2006 @ 2:20 pm by harvey in Culture
You can get free Japanese ebooks at Aozora Bunko (青空文庫).
Many of you may be familar with Project Gutenberg, a website which offers free English language ebooks. Same thing, but with more Kanji.
You can search by author or book title. There are also books available in Palm format, and even Keitai format as well.
If anyone is interested and needs help regarding how to use the website, let me know via comment or Talk2Me and I’ll post a detailed instruction manual.

Hi Harvey:
I’m looking for the Japanese translation of James Joyce’s “Finnegans Wake” as an ebook. I’m also interested in translations of other English texts.
Instructions on using the site would be appreciated. Please send to my email above.
thanks,
