Diese Anthologie versammelt die schönsten Sekundenstorys und Minutennovellen über die Liebe: romantische, heftige, überraschende, intensive, atemberaubende, tieftraurige und sehr, sehr lustige Lovestorys, die einem zum Lachen, Grübeln oder Seufzen bringen; manche sind nur sechs Worte lang, andere lassen sich mehr Zeit für den Blitzeinschlag der Liebe – und allem, was dann folgt ...

        The sad years of Kawabata

        by Miguel Sardegna

        “Kanjis aren’t words, but images, concepts. Unlike our alphabet, you don’t read a kanji, you look at it. The kanji for tree is the drawing of a tree. The Japanese don’t read the word tree, they stare at the tree”, Japanese literature professor Facundo explains. Days ago, an unknown voice told him about the death of his father. Since that moment, Facundo is enveloped by confusion and memories; his mother, his father, death and a pact of silence that carries him into the present.The protagonist of this novel will find in Kawabata a friend and a teacher, who will help him rethink his family history; and in the Japanese culture, the words to find beauty in the most atrocious circumstances.Miguel Sardegna introduces us to the oneiric world of Japan through his avid gaze of knowledge, and through a plot that traps us forever in this wonderful and ancestral culture. “It’s a love letter to literature, an amazing and amazed journey through the universe of Yasunari Kawabata. You will be surprise by the power of the images”.Juan José Millás

        A Literary Journey across Japan

        by Suso Mourelo

        Suso Mourelo travels throughout Japan. He visits big cities and quiet rural enclaves, with the goal of discovering the places where the novels of his favorite authors took place. We roam the Tokyo of the accursed writer, Osamu Dazai or the small island of Kamishima that served as an inspiration for Yukio Mishima; the Kyoto of Junichirô Tanizaki’s fetish stories or the mountain refuge in which Yasunari Kawabata set Snow Country. With this literary universe as a point of reference, the author wanders across the country, whilst engaging its people, living in the intimacy of their homes, and while he probes the circumstances of a society that is experiencing an amazing mutation. Mourelo creates a story that, in the manner of a long haiku, guides us through the literary memory by the sheer force of sensations and present-day images.
