Träume im Kristall. Erzählungen. Aus d. Japan. u. m. e. Nachw. v. Siegfried Schaarschmidt

These stories by the 1968 Nobel laureate, some translated into German for the first time, showcase Kawabata's modernity and his unique Japanese sensualism and eroticism, influenced by Joyce and Proust. They exemplify subtle psychology and highlight Kawabata at the peak of his narrative mastery.
