Morimura Seiichi
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Morimura Seiichi (森村誠一) (born January 2, 1933) is a Japanese novelist and author. He is best known for the controversial The Devil's Gluttony (悪魔の飽食) (1981), which revealed the atrocities committed by Unit 731 of the Imperial Japanese Army during the Sino-Japanese War (1937-1945).
The Devil's Gluttony was serialized in the Akahata (Japanese Communist Party's newspaper) in the 1980s. It was later published by Kobunsha (光文社), but half of a photograph was discovered to be a fabrication. After the photograph was removed, a version was published by Kadokawa Shoten.
