The Reed Cutter and Captain Shigemoto's Mother, by Junichiro Tanizaki

It has two novellas. The prose of the first 25 pages of The Reed Cutter is very beautiful and elegant. But its story is so so. The second story is not interesting either.

Hardcover. Published by Alfred A. Knopf, 1994. ISBN 067942010X. Translated by Anthony H. Chambers.
