Description

The grandson of Prince Genji lives outside of space and time and wanders the grounds of an old monastery in Kyoto.

The monastery, too, is timeless, with barely a trace of any human presence.

The wanderer is searching for a garden that has long captivated him. This novel by International Booker Prize winner László Krasznahorkai - perhaps his most serene and poetic work - describes a search for the unobtainable and the riches to be discovered along the way.

Despite difficulties in finding the garden, the reader is closely introduced to the construction processes of the monastery as well as the geological and biological processes of the surrounding area, making this an unforgettable meditation on nature, life, history, and being.
