Beschreibung

<b>"Beautifully, startingly, explosively expansive . . . In this delicate, near miraculous novel, there is no path away from grief, but there is a kind of company in loss, and a continuation of love.” —from the foreword by Katie Kitamura, author of <i>Audition</i> <br><br>From one of Japan’s most acclaimed writers comes a lyrical and poignant meditation on marriage, and the ways in which the most romantic gestures are often the quietest ones.</b><br><br><i>Before the hospital, we had often raised our hands towards one another as we’d gone through life together.</i><br><br>A man sits in a cafe, sipping a green juice and watching the world go by. A calico cat jumps onto a wall; a white butterfly flutters through the air; cherry blossom petals fall, softly, to the ground. Life, momentarily, stands still, as our unnamed narrator prepares to visit his terminally ill wife in hospital, and reminisces on the life they have shared together. <br><br>A prize-winning bestseller in Japan, <i>Beautiful Distance</i> is a profoundly affecting and intimate story that looks with honesty and tenderness at the journey towards the end of a life. It explores what family means, how we think about death, and the lasting power of small acts of love.<br><br><b>“A remarkable story which assuaged my fear . . . and altered my view of life and death.” <i>—</i>Asako Yuzuki, internationally bestselling author of <i>Butter</i></b>
