A quiet, elegantly written and affecting book. The central character's experience coming to terms with grief and reconnecting with the world through the central relationship is realistically written and very touching. This stayed with me after I finished it.
The edition I read included "A Note on the Tea Ceremony, the Backdrop for This Novel." I don't think you can miss the significance of tea in this, but I was glad of the information. I did attend a Japanese Tea Ceremony nearly 50 years ago, but my memory of it is dull. I probably wasn't paying enough attention. ;-) In this note is ... Mr. Kawabata's characters nonetheless seem to pause at the intersection, marked for them by the permanence of the old tea vessels and the impermanence of the owners. This edition also includes brief footnotes to tell the Western reader about some of the tea vessels used and of their age - hundreds of years old - which had been passed from generation to generation. A young man struggles with a love connection he has made that is, at best, inappropriate. It is a short novel, I won't include spoilers. But there is also this, which somehow touched me. He gazed at it for a time. In a gourd that had been handed down for three centuries, a flower that would fade in a morning. Maybe you have to read it in context, but it just struck me how fleeting is life.

i enjoyed reading this for the most part, but i was never really captivated by the story or the characters. not sure why, but i just did not connect with it. besides that, in parts, it was more explicitly violent than i was comfortable with.

I really, really, really loved this book. Interesting to put yourself in Sarai's shoes and see what it might have been like married to a prophet. I'll be reading the other books in the series for sure.

A mystery involving allegorical fairly tales, suspicious characters, and an 11-year-old narrator for a very adult story. A great, great read!

This is possibly the worst book I have ever read. It is extremely well written, but it made me want to die a little bit. After reading it, I was ashamed to be a woman, and I hated every character in it. Don't read it unless you want to feel bad about yourself and about humanity.

There are a several gems in this collection of letters John Newton wrote to those in his area of influence. He was filled with the wisdom that comes from difficult life experience under the grid of the Gospel. There are probably five or so that I will go back to for this wisdom and insight, especially in the letters on remaining sin in the believer and the letters on calling to the ministry.

This story was a good story about the loss of a parent and figuring out who that parent was as an individual.
LOVE.
