Tamayura (Relatos / Short Stories)
Libro inédito de Yasunari Kawabata, el legendario Nobel japonés. El presente libro contiene diez relatos con historias entrelazadas, a veces porque los protagonistas comparten el mismo nombre, otras, por su carácter sutilmente sobrenatural, y casi siempre porque tienen el amor --y el dolor que nace de él-- como tema central. Inédito hasta ahora en castellano, Seix Barral lo presenta en esta oportunidad en traducción directa del japonés. Cada uno de estos relatos fue primero publicado en revistas literarias entre 1951 y 1956, años en los que la pobreza y la desolación de un Japón en ruinas traumatizaron a una generación abatida por la derrota en la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Este es el contexto histórico en el que el autor desarrolla estas historias. En ellas, como en muchas de sus obras posteriores, la guerra y la rendición de Japón marcan un antes y un después en la vida de los personajes y es un hecho histórico que está omnipresente como paisaje de fondo. "El relato que abre este libro, La luna en el agua, es una obra de arte en sí misma y puede que contenga lo mejor y más representativo de Kawabata: lo extraordinario en lo ordinario, la dicotomía entre realidad e ilusión, la enfermedad como una visión peculiar del mundo, la locura, la belleza sutil de los detalles que podrían pasar fácilmente inadvertidos, el amor de una mujer." --Tana Oshima ENGLISH DESCRIPTION An unpublished book by Yasunari Kawabata, the legendary Japanese Nobel laureate. This book contains ten stories with interconnected narratives, sometimes because the protagonists share the same name, other times due to their subtly supernatural nature, and almost always because they revolve around love--and the pain that stems from it--as a central theme. Previously unpublished in Spanish, Seix Barral now presents it in this edition with a direct translation from Japanese. Each of these stories was first published in literary magazines between 1951 and 1956, years during which the poverty and desolation of a war-torn Japan traumatized a generation burdened by the defeat in World War II. This is the historical context in which the author sets these narratives. In them, as in many of his later works, the war and Japan's surrender mark a before and after in the characters' lives, serving as an ever-present backdrop. "The opening story in this book, The Moon in the Water, is a masterpiece in itself and might encapsulate the best and most representative qualities of Kawabata: the extraordinary in the ordinary, the dichotomy between reality and illusion, illness as a peculiar worldview, madness, the subtle beauty of details that might easily go unnoticed, the love of a woman." --Tana Oshima

The Rainbow
Available in English for the very first time, a powerful, poignant novel about three half sisters in post-war Japan, from the Nobel Prize-winning author of Snow Country.With the Second World War only a few years in the past, and Japan still reeling from its effects, two sisters—born to the same father but different mothers—struggle to make sense of the new world in which they are coming of age. Asako, the younger, has become obsessed with locating a third sibling, while also experiencing love for the first time. While Momoko, their father’s first child—haunted by the loss of her kamikaze boyfriend and their final, disturbing days together—seeks comfort in a series of unhealthy romances. And both sisters find themselves unable to outrun the legacies of their late mothers. A thoughtful, probing novel about the enduring traumas of war, the unbreakable bonds of family, and the inescapability of the past, The Rainbow is a searing, melancholy work from one of Japan’s greatest writers. A VINTAGE ORIGINAL.
