Ogata Shingo is growing old, and his memory is failing him. At night he hears only the sound of death in the distant rumble from the mountain. The relationships which have previously defined his life - with his son, his wife, and his attractive daughter-in-law - are dissolving, and Shingo is caught between love and destruction.

Reviews

A rich, complicated novel. . . . Of all modern Japanese fiction, Kawabata's is the closest to poetry
