Libro inédito de Yasunari Kawabata, el legendario Nobel japonés.


El presente libro contiene diez relatos con historias entrelazadas, a veces porque los protagonistas comparten el mismo nombre, otras, por su carácter sutilmente sobrenatural, y casi siempre porque tienen el amor --y el dolor que nace de él-- como tema central. Inédito hasta ahora en castellano, Seix Barral lo presenta en esta oportunidad en traducción directa del japonés.


Cada uno de estos relatos fue primero publicado en revistas literarias entre 1951 y 1956, años en los que la pobreza y la desolación de un Japón en ruinas traumatizaron a una generación abatida por la derrota en la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Este es el contexto histórico en el que el autor desarrolla estas historias. En ellas, como en muchas de sus obras posteriores, la guerra y la rendición de Japón marcan un antes y un después en la vida de los personajes y es un hecho histórico que está omnipresente como paisaje de fondo.


"El relato que abre este libro, La luna en el agua, es una obra de arte en sí misma y puede que contenga lo mejor y más representativo de Kawabata: lo extraordinario en lo ordinario, la dicotomía entre realidad e ilusión, la enfermedad como una visión peculiar del mundo, la locura, la belleza sutil de los detalles que podrían pasar fácilmente inadvertidos, el amor de una mujer." --Tana Oshima


ENGLISH DESCRIPTION


An unpublished book by Yasunari Kawabata, the legendary Japanese Nobel laureate.


This book contains ten stories with interconnected narratives, sometimes because the protagonists share the same name, other times due to their subtly supernatural nature, and almost always because they revolve around love--and the pain that stems from it--as a central theme. Previously unpublished in Spanish, Seix Barral now presents it in this edition with a direct translation from Japanese.


Each of these stories was first published in literary magazines between 1951 and 1956, years during which the poverty and desolation of a war-torn Japan traumatized a generation burdened by the defeat in World War II. This is the historical context in which the author sets these narratives. In them, as in many of his later works, the war and Japan's surrender mark a before and after in the characters' lives, serving as an ever-present backdrop.


"The opening story in this book, The Moon in the Water, is a masterpiece in itself and might encapsulate the best and most representative qualities of Kawabata: the extraordinary in the ordinary, the dichotomy between reality and illusion, illness as a peculiar worldview, madness, the subtle beauty of details that might easily go unnoticed, the love of a woman." --Tana Oshima

Perfect fit and Style
Color: Black, Size: Large
LOVE THESE TANKS. The material is stretchy, durable and not see through, it’s a longer fit so it doesn’t stop at the waist and has a small curve cut at the waist area. Perfect for layering as the neck is high and also makes for good coverage for those who are bustier like myself. I ordered A large AND ordered four different colors as they are a great price.

Good basic tanktop
Color: White, Size: Small
The material feels really nice and soft to the touch. It’s great as a basic tank top for everyday wear, especially during hot weather. 🌤️ The fit is flattering and shapes the body well without feeling too tight. Simple, comfortable, and easy to match with anything!

Very flattering
Color: Royal Blue, Size: Small
I ordered four of these tops, two white, a beautiful royal blue, and the great green one . There are so many things to like about this top but they didn’t work for my needs. The fabric is a nice weight, it is form fitting but not clingy, soft and comfortable, I was looking for tops that would not expose my bra straps. The style is cut in at the shoulder which will show your straps. If that’s not an issue for you then you will love this top. Can be worn by itself, under a suit jacket or blouse. The colors are bright and flattering, perfect for spring and summer.

Nice Fit - Casual or Dressy Casual
Color: Black, Size: Large
The tank top is comfortable, true to size and form fitting with great length (tank runs about 3 inches past my waist). I like the look and fit so much I bought the same tank in several different colors. The tank looks great with my wide leg jeans and below the knee bubble skirt. The tank is versatile and can be worn for leisure or dressy casual creating a polished look, i.e. wear with a blazer or smart casual skirt. I watch for a discounted price as some colors may be offered at a lower price.
