The Makioka Sisters Who is the antagonist in The Makioka Sisters by Junichiro Tanizaki? Asked by bookragstutor on 20 Aug 12:52 Last updated by Jill W on 06 Jan 22:13
Okubata would be considered the novel's antagonist. He steals from the family when the opportunity presents itself, blackmails his brother-in-law, and abandons his wife when she becomes pregnant.
