From the Nobel Prizewinning writer and acclaimed author of Snow Country comes a beautiful rendering of the predicament of old ageabout an elderly Tokyo businessman who must face the failures of his memory and the sudden upsurges of passion that illuminate the end of a life.A rich, complicated novel.... Of all modern Japanese fiction, Kawabatas is the closest to poetry. The New York Times Book ReviewBy day Ogata Shingo, an elderly Tokyo businessman, is troubled by small failures of memory. At night he associates the distant rumble he hears from the nearby mountain with the sounds of death. In between are the complex relationships that were once the foundations of Shingos life: his trying wife; his philandering son; and his beautiful daughterinlaw, who inspires in him both pity and the stirrings of desire. Out of this translucent web of attachments, Kawabata has crafted a novel that is a powerful, serenely observed meditation on the relentless march of time.Translated from the Japanese by Edward G. Seidensticker
