About This Novel
"Modern Love and Infatuation" contains six sensual novels written by Tanizaki between his youth and middle age, all of which belong to the genre with high artistic achievements in his early creations. These works mainly revolve around "emotion", each exploring the abyss of human nature from a unique perspective, including the indulgence and indulgence of aestheticism, as well as the provocation and horror of sensual novels, forming a series of literary confessions that rebel against the times with desire. He also used this to add highly personal stylized creative practice and aesthetic experiments to the history of modern literature in Japan and the world. At the same time, this batch of works not only continues the fin-de-siècle aesthetics and "demonism" style of his early creations, but can also provide a glimpse of the theme types and prototypes of later classic novels: sensual pleasure and sorrow, the ravings and monologues of idiots in the floating world, the discovery of the existence of beauty in the gloom, and the display of the heat of life from the point of madness.
