Fiction
The Master of Go
A novel about a final match, an aging champion, and the etiquette that surrounds a game most Western readers will never play. Kawabata doesn't explain Go so much as let you feel its weight: the silence, the formality, the way a lifetime can be compressed into a board of black and white stones. This edition is a slim hardcover, dignified and a little distant, like the novel itself. The drama is almost entirely beneath the surface. For readers who appreciate fiction that moves at the pace of a long afternoon and trusts you to notice what is not being said.
