«La casa de las bellas durmientes» is the novel by Yasunari Kawabata, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardcover (150 pages, in Spanish).
The elderly Eguchi arrives at a secret house where he spends the night beside sleeping girls; the only rule is not to wake them or cross boundaries. Over the course of his visits, between sleep and wakefulness, the novel weaves together old age, solitude, memory and desire in an atmosphere of unsettling serenity.
This edition belongs to the Biblioteca de Plata collection, with selection and commentary by Mario Vargas Llosa.
