Little Clothbound Classics: irresistible, mini editions of short stories, novellas and essays from the world s greatest writers, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith.

Tired of the bustling city, a man takes the train through the snow to Japan s mountains, to meet with a geisha he believes he loves. Beautiful and innocent, she is tightly bound by the rules of a rural geisha, and lives a life of servitude and seclusion. Snow Country, Yasunari Kawabata s masterpiece, is a delicate, subtle meditation on love and its limits.

A work of beauty and strangeness, one of the most distinguished and moving of Japanese novels New York Herald Tribune

Yasunari Kawabata was born in Osaka, Japan, in 1899 and before the Second World War had established himself as his country s leading novelist. Among his major works are Snow Country, A Thousand Cranes and The Master of Go. Awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1968, he died in 1972.
