The famous Japanese writer Tokutomi Ashika lived in seclusion in a mountain village and recorded his beautiful natural life of "working on his own food, farming in fair weather and reading in rainy weather".
The book is divided into four parts: spring, summer, autumn and winter. The author uses beautiful writing to delicately describe the natural scenery of Japan throughout the year - the colorful Fuji dawn, the vast Sagami Beach sunset, the strange and changeable flying clouds in Fragrant Mountain, the misty and confusing Hanazuki autumn evening...
These natural scenes, once touched by the author's wonderful writing, are all full of interest and fascinating.
Reader comments
The natural scenery depicted in this book is so beautiful! I especially like the summer scenery described by the author, such as the rice seedlings fluttering in the south wind, and the coolness under the shadow of the trees after the thunderstorm. The descriptions in the book are very detailed, making me feel like I was actually there. The author is really good at observing and feeling nature. Reading this book made me full of yearning for nature.
