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An unpublished book by Yasunari Kawabata, the legendary Japanese Nobel laureate.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 Previously unpublished in Spanish, Seix Barral now presents it in this edition with a direct translation from Japanese.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

FANTASTIC FIT
Size: 16 Plus, Color: Washed Blue
I'm a 4'7" , 65 year old woman. Due to abdominal issues I needed jeans that give that extra something on the waist. I've tried on just about every brand of jeans ranging in size from adult/junior 6 to 12. If they fit on the legs the waist was huge. If they fit on the waist the legs and butt had enough room for me and a friend. I was resigned to wearing yoga pants and leggings with big shirts. My son mentioned that he loved the Amazon basics men's dress slacks, so I figured why not. First I looked at women's and juniors, and I knew from the measurements that I was still stuck. Then I remembered that about 15 years ago I'd buy girls pants (I was a size 12 in kids at the time) Looking at the sizes I knew a 12 was way too small, then I saw the 16 plus. With hesitation I bought them. Well glory be miss Agnes, THEY FIT. Comfortable, real jeans again. Sure, I have to take them up about 6 inches, but that's fine, not a problem. I'm just so happy to have real jeans again !!!

Who doesn't love a unicorn?
Size: 2T, Color: Pink/Unicorn
Cute set but runs a bit big in my opinion for a size 2T. My grandbaby is tall for her age (22 months), but the pants were really long and loose on her, granted she's not chunky, so factor that in. Overall, it's a nice set and the material is soft (especially the pants) and seems like it would keep the little ones warm.
