The New Japanese Literature Association (新日本文学会, Shin Nihon Bungakkai) was a professional association for Japanese writers, poets, and literary critics that existed from 1945 to 2005. For many years, the association was under the influence of the Japan Communist Party, before breaking away in the 1960s.[1] In the early postwar era, it counted large numbers of the most prominent Japanese writers and critics as members.
