«Primera nieve en el monte Fuji» is the short story collection by Yasunari Kawabata, published by Verticales in paperback (216 pages, in Spanish).
The stories in the volume were selected by Kawabata himself and were published in 1958. They portray the domestic world of postwar Japan and its small rituals, and move through memory, beauty, silence and mixed feelings, with the author's characteristic delicacy and humor.
Translated from the Japanese by Jaime Barrera. The volume belongs to the Literaria collection from Verticales de Bolsillo. Kawabata received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1968.
For readers of Japanese fiction and classic short stories, especially those who want to approach the work of a Nobel Prize winner.
Yasunari Kawabata was a Japanese novelist and short story writer whose spare, lyrical, subtly-shaded prose works won him the 1968 Nobel Prize in Literature, the first Japanese author to receive the award. His works have enjoyed broad international appeal and are still widely read.
