Book Synopsis
Shimamura is tired of the bustling city. He takes the train through the snow to the mountains of the west coast of Japan, to meet with a geisha he believes he loves.

Trade Review
Beautifully economical . . . The haiku works entirely by implication; so, in this novel, using the same delicate, glancing technique, Mr. Kawabata probes a complicated human relationship * The Times Literary Supplement *
Kawabata's novels are among the most affecting and original works of our time * The New York Times Book Review *
