Natsume Soseki: Sanshiro, Gebunden

Klappentext

A gorgeous Clothbound Classics edition of Soseki's cherished novel, with an introduction by Haruki Murakami A Penguin Classic
Soseki's work of gentle humor and doomed innocence depicts twenty-three-year-old Sanshiro, a recent graduate from a provincial college, as he begins university life in the big city of Tokyo. Baffled and excited by the traffic, the academics and --- most of all --- the women, Sanshiro must find his way amongst the sophisticates who fill his new life. An incisive social and cultural commentary*, Sanshiro*is also a subtle study of first love, tradition, modernization, and the idealism of youth against the cynicism of middle age. This is a Clothbound Classics edition of Soseki's beloved novel, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith. These collectible Penguin editions are bound in high-quality, colorful and tactile cloth with foil stamped into the design. Masterfully translated by Jay Rubin, this edition also includes an introduction by Haruki Murakami.
