Price and Buy The sound of the mountain by Yasunari Kawabata (Farsi)

“The Sound of the Mountain” by Yasunari Kawabata is a poignant, introspective novel that explores themes of aging, family, and the passage of time. The story follows Shingo, an elderly man who reflects on his life as he navigates his relationships with his wife, children, and the changing world around him. Set in post-war Japan, Shingo contemplates the challenges of aging, the emotional distance between him and his wife, and the moral conflicts involving his children, especially his daughter-in-law, who has an affair with his son. Kawabata’s lyrical prose captures the quiet beauty and melancholy of life, while the titular “sound of the mountain” serves as a metaphor for the inevitable, often unspoken, passage of time. Through Shingo’s experiences, the novel examines memory, loss, and the subtle complexities of human relationships, offering a deeply reflective look at the inner life of an individual facing his twilight years.
