About this listen
The Day I Return from the Sea is a rare and introspective essay by beloved Japanese children's author Nankichi Niimi, best known for his fairy tales.
In this poetic and deeply personal reflection, Niimi explores his past's uncertainties and the present's quiet clarity. He writes of the unshakable truth that one's heart and life belong to oneself alone, beyond the reach of others, even emperors like Nero. He affirms a renewed sense of hope and personal determination through vivid imagery and gentle conviction.
This essay offers readers a rare window into the inner world of a writer wrestling with creative struggle, identity, and the courage to move forward—a moving piece for those interested in literature, self-reflection, and the emotional depth behind artistic work.
