Description
A Japanese writer of genius, Soseki Natsume is widely regarded as one of Japan's most beloved and respected authors. His novel "And Then" is considered one of his most insightful and stirring works. Set against the backdrop of Meiji-era Japan, the story follows Daisuke, a young man struggling to find his place in a rapidly changing world. As traditional customs give way to western ideals, Daisuke must navigate the complexities of his own identity and sense of purpose. His life is turned upside down when he reunites with an old friend and her ailing wife, forcing him to confront the limits of his intellectual reserve. As Daisuke's emotions begin to take hold, he is faced with difficult choices in a culture that values societal obligation above personal freedom. This thought-provoking novel explores the tensions between tradition and modernity, and the human cost of change.
