Mountain Sound

About This Novel

Kawabata Yasunari's classic work, Yu Hua highly recommends it! "Sound of the Mountain" mainly tells the story of Shingo's family, his son's affair, his daughter's marriage failure, the sorrow of old age, and Shingo's subtle attachment to his beautiful daughter-in-law Kikuko... Kawabata Yasunari uses his usual aesthetic style to delicately and calmly condense the post-war world, style and reality into the sorrow and melancholy of Japan since ancient times, demonstrating the skill of overlapping images of poetry and drama. This book and "A Thousand Cranes" are recognized as the pinnacle of Japanese literature.
