About This Novel
Isn't the depth of grief the depth of love? "A Thousand Cranes" is the Nobel Prize-winning work of Kawabata Yasunari. It is the ultimate masterpiece that combines morality and desire into the tea ceremony. The novel tells the story of Kikuji, who was born in a famous tea ceremony family, and quietly met several women who had a close relationship with his father at a tea party, and was involved in the whirlpool of fate. The work uses Yukiko's cloth bag decorated with thousands of cranes as a symbol of beauty, to metaphorize that the beautiful and pure women in the heart are like flowers in the water, moon and mirror, out of reach. In the conflict between morality and taboo, it touches the cold and warm love, famous objects, life and death, showing an illusory beauty of sorrow. The sin may not be eradicated, but the sorrow will eventually pass. Supreme purity cannot be contaminated by any filth, and it is therefore inclusive of everything.
