The Rainbow:A Novel - Yasunari Kawabata


I picked this up because the author had won the Pultizer Prize.  It was a dreamy book, translated from the Japanese.  It tells the story of three half-sisters survival after the bombing of Japan in WWII, in an indirect, referential way.  I didn't care for the story and the writing was very sparse.  Not recommended.


Published:  1951  Read: February 2024  Genre: Fiction
