Legacy Project - "Odds and Ends", circa 2008 - 2019
Scope and Contents
Odds and Ends is a book Murayama was working on upon his death in 2016. It was never finished. This book is a collection of articles, essays and short stories Murayama wrote about his life and the Oyama Family. The folders in this sub-series show Milton’s experimentation with selecting and arranging these documents into a cohesive work. There are five physical compilation attempts included in this sub-series. There is a folder of discarded articles (articles that were ultimately cut from this work and are not included in any of the other folders), and a folder containing a draft of the novella Joji about the character Joji Oyama. In terms of born-digital content, this subseries contains one digital compilation attempt for Odds and Ends, as well as a file that has four "Table of Contents" documents for this work.
