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An unpublished book by Yasunari Kawabata, the legendary Japanese Nobel laureate.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 Previously unpublished in Spanish, Seix Barral now presents it in this edition with a direct translation from Japanese.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

Love my new blanket! It fits perfectly on my bed and looks delightful. It’s made well, the material is lightweight. Sleeping with it gave a cozy warm feeling. Definitely worth the money. Definitely worth treating myself buying it!

Soft and fluffy after a wash & dry

Perfect, lightweight and warm. I got this for a chaise that I use. It’s not thick, but enough to keep you warm and cozy if you’re just reading and relaxing. I washed it and dried it as soon as I took it out of the box. It fluffed out perfectly, so don’t be fooled by the flattened squishy blanket that arrives. It doesn’t shed, which is a bonus.

High Quality Comfort!
Color: 01 Sage Green, Size: Queen (90" X 90")
This is definitely one of the most comfortable blankets I have ever owned. The material is thick, soft, warm, durable, and resistant to shedding & fibers breaking off. All of these favorable qualities work together to create optimal sleep conditions, and I would say it protects against cold temperatures in the environment (natural air & A/C, for example) very well. It is SO extremely cozy!!! It has become a comfort item of sorts, as well. It fits my Queen-sized bed absolutely perfectly. I've been searching for a blanket to fit my entire bed, and this blanket most definitely is the one. When this blanket is nearby, it's nap time! I love the the slightly raised texture of this blanket's material, and the checkered pattern adds a subtle, yet stylish touch to its overall appearance.
