Seven Japanese Tales (Vintage International)
Tanizaki's stories probe the places where beauty becomes dangerous and desire turns destructive. A blind musician demands the ultimate sacrifice from her lover. A tattoo artist transforms a young woman into the predator she was meant to be. Each tale unfolds with ceremonial precision, revealing the violence that can lurk within aesthetic perfection. This collection finds readers who understand that traditional forms can contain the most subversive content, and that obsession often wears the mask of devotion.
