About This Novel

Happiness is short-lived, but loneliness is permanent. "Ancient Capital" is a literary postcard of the city of Kyoto carefully drawn by Yasunari Kawabata. The novel uses light and delicate writing to narrate the joys and sorrows of the twin sisters Chieko and Naeko, and writes about their bitter life experiences, pure love, and their yearning for a better life. Cleverly, the author places the beautiful relationship between the sisters in the four seasons of Kyoto to describe it. The scenes blend together, allowing readers to appreciate the beauty of Kyoto's ancient culture. Loneliness is like a shadow, coexisting with life. And only lonely people can understand life more deeply. Don't be demanding, don't be envious, explore the true nature of life in the flowers and leaves in front of you.
