Light and Darkness: An Unfinished Novel | 
#OnThisDay in 1916 Natsume Sōseki's 明暗, Mei An (Light and Darkness) began serialization in the Tokyo and Osaka editions of Asahi Shimbun. At the time of his death in November of that year, Sōseki had completed 188 installments. A blank manuscript page with the number 189 was found on his desk after he passed. Even incomplete, it was the longest novel he ever wrote, and is considered the first modern Japanese novel. #HistoryGetsLIT
