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An unpublished book by Yasunari Kawabata, the legendary Japanese Nobel laureate.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 Previously unpublished in Spanish, Seix Barral now presents it in this edition with a direct translation from Japanese.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

Eaten by my Thighs
Color: 04-multicolour (4-pack), Size: X-Large
I wanted to love them. Sadly they have let me down. Pros: natural breathable fabric , super soft and comfortable, cotton panty gussets for feminine health and panty liners will stick!! Yay:). And the colors! They are great! But here’s the Con. And it’s the con of all cons. THEY RIDE UP!! Eaten by my thighs. I’m 5’6” and in the general area of 175. I fluctuate depending on how many times I visit the bakery! :) I don’t have a thigh gap but it is not a super tight thigh squeeze. I seldom have thigh climb but these do. I tried two different sizes to see if that made a difference. Nope. I was miserable at a recent theme park in these. I was wearing long heavy dresses and it was quite awkward to yank these legs down non stop. They feel amazing and they have all the requirements 1. Soft 2. Comfortable and stretches with you 3. Breathable with nice thin fabric. Not bulky 4. Natural fibers 5. Great colors If you are a person that is not blessed with Thunder Thighs, please order these. They are great! I wear them at home and to locations that I will not be doing a lot of walking at. I have washed them so many times and they look like new still.

Best Boxer Briefs for Women!
Color: 09-multicolour (4-pack), Size: Large
I rarely give 5⭐️’s but these deserve it! Hands down, the most comfortable material, stitching, waistband, moisture wicking and overall comfort. They sit right beneath my bellybutton, they wash and dry well and they’re sturdy. I have tried 3 styles and these are the best.

Super soft and comfortable!
I haven't bought new underwear in forever. I used to wear thongs, but now find them incredibly uncomfortable. The last few times I've tried to buy new underwear, the sizing was either way off (I'm a medium, but gave up after having to return them for a large and then extra large) or the quality was horrible (two brands stretch waaaay out and they can fall down while wearing them (I have larger ass-ets, so they shouldn't start to slide down during use). I tried these after buying some bamboo pyjamas and I love them! They are incredibly soft, comfortable, and stretchy. I can use them all day, and they work well, whether I'm lounging on the couch or wearing them under my spandex shorts at the gym, they don't ride up or slide down. They are both comfortable and look sexy, while providing support in all the right places. I haven't had them too long, so I can't speak on the durability, but they appear to be of good quality and I plan to order more, this time without the band.

Well made, light fabric. Waist doesn't roll.
These bamboo underwear really do keep you cool. They fit true to size, and wear easily. the wide elastic waist band doesn't roll on me. They are comfortable to wear, washed and dried easily. The material has some stretch to it, but not a lot. Well made, no stray strings. Perfect fit for me. Just what I was looking for.

Good quality, smooth feel
I got these briefs so recently that have washed just one pair so far. First off, these are very comfortable, the material is soft & bordering silky, good quality sewing. Wash well and minimal if any shrinkage. They do come a bit wrinkled from the dryer but hey, these are underwear and will go on smoothly. If it were a t-shirt, I would look sloppy. I feel the sizing is accurate. No rolling and these don't announce themselves under clothing. Planning on getting more of these boxers and replacing my old panties.
