The purpose of this essay is to propose a response to the following questions: can a sociologist make use of literature? And if so, under what conditions may a literary work be of use to sociologists? The answer to the question will be formulated through an analysis of After Fukushima. Journal of Trembling Days, a literary work by Tawada Yôko, an exophonic Japanese writer living in Germany. The analysis will be conducted in the framework of the paradigm of analytic autoethnography, which formulates three conditions for field notes to be considered as autoethnographic: (1) the author-researcher must be a full member in the research group or setting, (2) visible as such a member in the researchers published text, and (3) committed to an analytic research agenda focused on improving theoretical understandings of broader social phenomena. The following hermeneutic approach to the selected literary work will cover all three issues.

Even though the interest in Yayoi Kusama has been growing since the end of the last century, there are still undiscovered aspects of her works which are addressed in this paper. I try to show how her works from the early period can be interpreted in the context of tradition and the key assumptions of Japanese art. I proceed to discuss the literary output of the artist which now seems to go unnoticed by a wider audience. To conclude, I will answer the question of what brings together the experiences of Kusama and the story of Alice in Wonderland.

Mimo zapoczątkowanego pod koniec XX w., wciąż rosnącego zainteresowania krytyków działaniami Kusamy Yayoi, nazywanego „Renesansem Kusamy”, bogactwo jej dokonań bywa niejednokrotnie redukowane do kilku charakterystycznych dla jej późniejszej twórczości motywów, takich jak kropki, czy gigantyczne rzeźby dyń. Zapomina się przy tym choćby o pracach z jej wczesnego okresu, które mogą stanowić klucz do odczytania jej późniejszych dzieł. Nie inaczej jest w przypadku literackiej twórczości Kusamy. To właśnie poprzez literaturę, niemal zupełnie nieznaną poza granicami jej ojczyzny, Kusama jest w stanie odsłonić zupełnie nowy aspekt swojego uniwersum. Na zakończenie artykułu, zostanie podjęta próba odpowiedzi na pytanie, co łączy Kusamę z Alicją z Krainy Czarów.
