Synopsis "Dandelions (Penguin Modern Classics) (in English)"

The exquisite last novel from Nobel Prize-winning author Yasunari KawabataIneko has lost the ability to see things. At first it was a ping-pong ball, then it was her fiancé. The doctors call it 'body blindness', and she is placed in a psychiatric clinic to recover. As Ineko's mother and fiancé walk along the riverbank after visiting time, they wonder: is her condition a form of madness - or an expression of love? Exploring the distance between us, and what we say without words, Kawabata's transcendent final novel is the last word from a master of Japanese literature. 'Lusciously peculiar' Paris Review

View Author's Page
(Osaka, 1899 - Kanagawa, 1972). Huérfano a los tres años, insomne perpetuo, cineasta en su juventud, lector voraz tanto de los clásicos como de las vanguardias europeas, fue un solitario empedernido. Escribió más de doce mil páginas de novelas, cuentos y artículos, y es uno de los escritores japoneses más populares dentro y fuera de su país. Mantuvo una profunda amistad con el escritor Yukio Mishima, del que fue su mentor y difusor. Recibió el Premio Nobel de Literatura en el año 1968. Entre sus obras, muchas de ellas marcadas por la soledad y el erotismo, destacan La bailarina de Izu, El maestro de Go, Lo bello y lo triste, Mil grullas, País de nieve, El rumor de la montaña e Historias de la palma de la mano. Kawabata se suicidó a los setenta y dos años.
