It is 1948. Japan is rebuilding her cities after the calamity of
World War Two, her people putting defeat behind them and looking to
the future. The celebrated artist, Masuji Ono, fills his days
attending to his garden, his house repairs, his two grown daughters
and his grandson, his evenings drinking with old associates in
quiet lantern-lit bars.His should be a tranquil retirement. But as
his memories continually return to the past - to a life and career
deeply touched by the rise of Japanese militarism - a dark shadow
begins to grow over his serenity. If you enjoyed An Artist of the
Floating World, you might also like Ishiguro's The Remains of the
Day, now available in Faber Modern Classics.
