Maggiori informazioni sul libro
In 1930, Yasunari published this second collection of very short stories (which he himself defined as "in the palm of the hand") four years after "Suggestions and Artifices." The author gathers his narrative material "almost without needing to live," simply noting what moves around him, with a detached gaze that is also seduced by the flow of life, a gaze that does not violate but gives images: the gaze of poetry. Everyday life and the life of the universe are fragmented, event by event, emotion by emotion, using tools that, following ancient Japanese paths, reach the most current narrative trends.
