A masterpiece of quiet lyricism set against a backdrop of change and renewal in suburban Tokyo.The most celebrated work by one of Japan's master literary stylists,Evening Clouds is a book filled with delicate images of ordinary life, richly and precisely observed. A family moves into a new home on a windswept hilltop in western Tokyo. Around them are forests and farms. But the developers are coming, and the children are growing up. There are meals, quandaries, conversations...Life appears comfortable and serene, yet Shno's portrayal has a strange and evocative undercurrent, as the most minute details slowly resonate out through a universe that is changing and unforgiving.Evening Cloudscombines the crafted naturalism of haiku with the Ozu-like clarity of film to produce a story that is wistful and real. Read Shno slowly, a luxuriate in his vision.
