No synopsis necessary.
(I'm currently enjoying the original).

Indeed. I wouldn't want one. ;-)
Are you enjoying the original, yarb?

I finished it yesterday and it's a fantastic novel. About a WWII Japanese draft resister who's unable, 20 years later, despite having ostensibly re-integrated into society, to shake off his supreme act of rebellion. It's the second of Maruya's novels I've read and he's a masterful realist writer - an artificer. Also recommended, Singular Rebellion, a more comical treatment of similar themes about a salaryman who marries the granddaughter of a murderess.

Oh, I was afraid of that. Now I'll have to add it to my frighteningly long reading list. :-) Thanks, yarb.

It's a fallacy that reading more books shortens your reading list. The opposite is true. If my reading list ever stops growing, it will be cause for worry.
