Very Few People Come This Way: Lyrical Episodes from the Year of the Rabbit
ISBN: 9781873047316 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 197 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Very Few People Come this Way is an epistolary novel set mostly in Japan. In the background are the last dying twitches of the student rebellion and a huge bribery scandal that led to the fall of a prime minister. The Year of the Rabbit referred to in the subtitle is 1975. The epistolists are three in number, two Americans and a Japanese. The Americans ravage the Japanese lyrical spirit with gusto. The Japanese correspondent wishes to take it seriously, but whether she succeeds better in her purpose than they do in theirs is doubtful.

And in his fictional chronicle of a match played between a revered and heretofore invincible Master and a younger, more modern challenger, Yasunari Kawabata captured the moment in which the immutable traditions of imperial Japan met the onslaught of the twentieth century. The competition between the Master of Go and his opponent, Otake, is waged over several months and...
