Floating Clouds

About This Novel

During the war, Yukiko went to Indochina in order to get rid of the emotional control of her relative Yiting. However, she met Tomioka, a married man in the densely forested southern country, and fell into another unethical love. After the war, Yukiko and Tomioka returned to Japan respectively, and the broken reality shattered all their dreams. Xuezi was confused and didn't know how to live in the world. She had seen through Tomioka's coldness and wanted to break up with him several times, but in the end it was difficult to break away... The more she struggled in the entanglements between reason and desire, the more she sank, and she fell into the quagmire of fate while she was awake. "Floating Cloud" is Hayashi Fumiko's last representative novel during her lifetime, and it is the culmination of her painstaking efforts in her literary career. More than forty years of life experience full of hardships have allowed Hayashi Fumiko's vision to touch the despicableness of people and pursue their goodness. Her cold and clear brushstrokes reveal her deep compassion for all living beings. Kawabata Yasunari commented on Fumiko Hayashi: "It is very rare for people to lament the sorrow of women like this." Legendary novelist and eternal literary girl, Fumiko Hayashi's charm swept across the literary and art world. With her autobiographical writing of female experiences, she has become a model of Japanese "girl literature", and her unique "romantic" style has expanded the territory of "private novels". She is the favorite writer of the film master Mikio Naruse. Her works have been adapted for the screen six times. Among them, the film "Floating Cloud" won numerous awards and ranked second on the list of the top 100 Japanese films of the 20th century.
