ABSTRACT

As above, I read the meaning of his wife, Setsuko, written in “Sad Toys” with his wife in sight. Setsuko in “Sad Toys” is not the main character of Takuboku's love. It is only a coworker reminding Takuboku's love. Takuboku is recalling love with Setsuko as a subject of old memories in order to escape from the pain of reality. In other words, Takuboku use themes of my wife and child to escape the living and literary deadlock. Moreover, it can be said that it is writing sadness under the name of love or family. For example, in Uta of 6, 124, 194, Takuboku is kindly writing a gesture calling for something to meet with his wife Setsuko. For face to face, it would be that daily kindness when my husband is talking to my wife at a normal home. However, the eyes of Takuboku on Uta are just as others. The position and circumstances of the wife Setsuko on Takuboku's eyes of sight are not written anywhere.
