    In 1987, Banana appeared on the Japanese literary scene with "The Kitchen" and caused a sensation, some people called it "revolutionary", with "unheard-of destruction", and even said that "modern literature has undergone a decisive qualitative change because of this work". But there are also some critics who believe that the success of "The Kitchen" is nothing more than a temporary phenomenon produced by Japan's unique consumer society. Regardless of praise or disapproval, the sensation caused by Yoshimoto Banana in the contemporary Japanese literary scene is a fact that cannot be ignored.

    Her works have been on the bestseller lists, won domestic and foreign literary awards, and have sold well not only in Japan but also in Europe and the United States. There is even a fixed term in Japanese literary criticism called the "Banana phenomenon". Like Haruki Murakami, she has become a high-profile newcomer in the contemporary Japanese literary scene, and the two are respectively known as the queen and the king of modern Japanese literature.

    Her works have been translated to 34 countries and regions around the world.

    The first "Banana phenomenon" appeared in 1987. The 24-year-old Yoshimoto Banana published "The Kitchen" (and "Full Moon" included in the same book), which won the Haiyan New Humanities Literary Award, and the 16th Izumi Kagyoka Literary Award that year. In the same year, "Bubble Sanctuary" won the Art Newcomer Award and was nominated for the Akutagawa Prize.

    As a result, Yoshimoto Banana's name has been heating up year after year. In 1989, all six of her published works were among the top 20 published in the list of published books, which was unheard of in the Japanese literary world, and was featured in the Mainichi Shimbun as the "Banana phenomenon". In the short five years from 1988 to 1992, a total of 15 of her works were published, and by 1993, her works were translated into many Chinese languages and published in 34 countries and regions, especially in Italy, the United States, Germany and other countries.

    The novel "N·P" won the 1993 Italian SCA-NO Foreign Literature Award". In August 1995, "Manna Mono" won the "5th Murasaki Shikibu Literary Award", and the popularity of foreign distribution in turn caused a further sensation in Japan, and it was called the second "Banana phenomenon". At the beginning of the 21st century, Banana Yoshimoto remained an important presence in the Japanese literary scene.

    In 1998, "The Sanctuary of Bubble Production" was nominated for the 99th and 100th Akutagawa Literary Awards respectively. In August 1999, he won the "Maschrad'Argentq Award" in Italy, and in September 2004, he won the 10th "Domago Literary Award" for "Bu and South America".
