The Makioka Sisters

Vintage
Year

Binding
Paperback
Pages
544

Four sisters, each carrying a different piece of their family's fractured pride. Tanizaki builds this story like fine woodwork—every joint visible, every stress point deliberate. The weight settles slowly, page after page, until you're carrying their burdens as your own. This is for readers who understand that some novels don't end, they accumulate. People who know that watching a family dissolve can be as gripping as any thriller, if you have patience for the long view.
