Beauty and Sadness
by Yasunari Kawabata
Kawabata really was a master of writing beautiful and elegant. This book really captures Kyoto and is a love story to the old capital.
The story is dark and twisted. It really seem to be usual for Japanese litterateur to combine beautiful elegance with disturbing stories, be them sexual or non sexual. Sometimes I personally feel that the dark moments can take away from the beauty.
