Kodansha 1990 1st ed hardcover Tokyo. 1990. Kodansha. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0870119400.

This is the rich and varied world into which you are invited, a world of only half-solved puzzles for its inhabitants: the scholar, for example, discovers a tragedy in his own past in place of the impersonal facts he sought; the novelist, in his search for the origins of his strange preoccupation, encounters a woman who improbably claims to be his mother. It is a world of brilliant surfaces: satirical, at times to the point of parody; incisive, at times to the point of cruelty. A world also of sudden depths, the mind at last confronting truths it prefers not to acknowledge. These two short stories and two novellas (‘Tree Shadows' was awarded the 1988 Kawabata Prize) make up the second volume of Maruya's fiction to appear in English. His novel was acclaimed internationally as ‘a superb piece of urban fiction. ' This new collection should serve both to confirm his reputation and to give readers a better idea of the scope of his ...
