Author: Junichiro Tanizaki.
The publishing house Alfaguara commemorates the fifty years of the death of a great author of the Japanese modern literature, Junichiro Tanizaki, with the publication of Cuentos de amor (Love stories), a selection of eleven love stories. These are eleven stories of amazing beauty, exquisite eroticism and disturbing wickedness. These are texts that go through the different faces of love and its most transgressive ramifications: sadomasochism, voyeurism, transvestism or fetishism. This careful selection has been made by the expert on Japanese literature Carlos Rubio and comprises 27 years of Junichiro Tanizaki’s career. Among them, there are stories as famous as The Tattooer, A cat, a man and two women or Fumiko’s legs.
Tanizaki (1886-1965), along with Kawabata, Mishima or Kobo Abe, is one of the greatest representatives of the Japanese literature of the 20th century. With the novel Captain Shigemoto’s mothers he was awarded the Imperial Prize of Literature in 1949.
