PRESTASI
Winner of the Nobel Prize Literature 1968
SINOPSIS
This is the novel – at once elegiac and suffused with life – that Yasunari Kawabata, the internationally aclaimed Japanese writer and winner of the Nobel Prize Literature in 1968, considered to be his finest work. It centers on a single game of Go, the ultimate contest of supremacy between the hitherto invincible Master of Go and his younger, more modern challenger. It is a game extended over many months of play, a game whose elevated atmosphere of ceremony increasingly gives way before the complex human tension not only between the Master and the Challenger but between their wives, their retinues, and the two worlds and sensibilities they represent. For the game is the framework: the true subject of Kawabata’s profoundly moving novel is the contest between tradition and change, between the old Japan and the new and, ultimately, between life and death.
