About This Novel

It's so beautiful that I want to cry. I really want to go to Kyoto after reading it. Chieko and Naeko are twin sisters. The elder sister Chieko was adopted by a wealthy brocade weaver in the ancient capital of Kyoto, while the younger sister stayed in the village where she was born. As a result, their fates became completely different. On the night of the Gion Festival, the two sisters unexpectedly reunited and learned the truth. However, in the end, they could not recognize each other due to their identities, and each returned to their own lives. A heart-warming story, the plot never strays from the scenery, festivals, and customs of Kyoto. Kawabata reconstructed the cultural Kyoto with beautiful language, which can be called the "hometown on paper" of the Japanese nation.
