Snow Country
Yasunari Kawabata, Edward G. Seidensticker (translation)Shimamura is tired of the bustling city. He takes the train through the snow to the mountains of the west coast of Japan, to meet with a geisha he believes he loves. Beautiful & innocent, Komako is tightly bound by the rules of a rural geisha, & lives a life of servitude & seclusion that is alien to Shimamura, & their love offers no freedom to either of them.
Snow Country is both delicate & subtle, reflecting in Kawabata's exact, lyrical writing the unspoken love & the understated passion of the young Japanese couple.
