A luxurious special edition of one of the greatest romances in Japanese literature.
Tokyo, 1912. Love blooms in the rule-bound world of Japan's aristocracy.
Kiyoaki falls for the exquisite and spirited Satoko. Although he has been raised by an aristocratic family, he does not belong in this world as she does. As the world around them changes and traditional powers wane, Kiyoaki is torn between the old and the new. Only when Satoko becomes engaged to a royal prince does Kiyoaki realise the magnitude of his passion.
'An austere love story, probably my favourite of his novels' David Mitchell
