About this book
Etsuko is a trapped woman who lays traps for others... After the early death of her philandering husband, Etsuko moves into her father-in-law's house, where she numbly submits to the old man's advances. Meanwhile she develops feelings for the handsome eighteen-year-old servant Saburo. Tormented by his indifference, yet invigorated by her desire, she makes one last, catastrophic bid for his attention. 'A sensuous, absorbing study of overriding obsession' Kirkus 'One of the outstanding writers of the world' New York Times
