When Jack London died abruptly on November 22, 1916, he left an unfinished story behind titled “Eyes of Asia.” Several years later, his wife, Charmian, completed the story and published it in the September and November issues of Cosmopolitan in 1924. The part written by London himself appeared in the former issue and Charmian’s conclusion to the story was published in the latter. The story is a love romance about a 22-year-old Japanese woman of the nobility who had drifted onto the shores of Hawaii in her infancy. Despite the popularity of London’s works in Japan, this story is scarcely known even among literary critics specializing in London studies. This paper is an attempt to remedy this situation by providing a Japanese translation of the story to make it more readily accessible to a Japanese readership. Due to space limitations of the current volume, the first half of the story will be translated here; the remaining part of the story will be translated on another occasion.
