Fujieda knew Shūgo Honda and Ken Hirano, two literary critics, from his school days.
There are also significant portions in his stories that bear a strong resemblance to reality, to his life.
In the story Kuki atama (Head of Air), the protagonist is, like Fujieda once was, an ophthalmologist.
His stories also deal with subjects such as relations between father and son and between siblings but in unusual settings.
In his story Ikka danran (Happy Family Circle), the protagonist falls through into a grave and is met by his father and five siblings.
