???Cu???nto dura el amor? ???Bajo qu??? formas vuelve a encenderse? ???Cu???les son las consecuencias del amor perdido? Por la ganadora del Premio Ringuet de la Academia de las Letras de Quebec, del Premio Literario Canad???-Jap???n y del Premio Gouverneur-G???n???ral Aoki Takashi tiene treinta a???os y trabaja para una prestigiosa empresa de Tokio que exige a sus empleados tiempo y dedicaci???n absolutos. Apenas queda espacio para la vida sentimental, pero Takashi se enamora violenta e inesperadamente de Yuko, una recepcionista con la que comparte clases de franc???s. Juntos empiezan una hermosa relaci???n, llena de ritos cotidianos, que se ve amenazada cuando el heredero del poderoso banco Sumida se fija en ella y le pide oficialmente la mano a su padre. Aunque escribe en franc???s, Shimazaki pertenece a la misma estirpe de grandes escritores contempor???neos japoneses como Haruki Murakami, Hiromi Kawakami y Yoko Ogawa, con esa combinaci???n ???nica de sensualidad y melancol???a y esa atenci???n a los peque???os y grandes cambios de la naturaleza y del alma humana. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION How long does love last? Under what circumstances can you rekindle that spark again? What are the consequences of a lost love? By the winner of the Ringuet Award, a literary award presented each year by the Acad???mie des lettres du Qu???bec, the Canada-Japan Literary Award, and the Gouverneur-G???n???ral Award. Aoki Takashi is thirty years-old and works for a prestigious company in Tokyo that demands unlimited time and dedication from its employees. He hardly has any time for matters of the heart, but then Takashi falls fiercely and unexpectedly in love with Yuko, a receptionist who he meets while taking French classes. Together they begin a beautiful relationship, full of daily rituals, but that relationship is soon threatened when the heir of the powerful Sumida Bank lays eyes on her and asks her father for her hand in marriage. Although he writes in French, Shimazaki belongs to the same lineage of great contemporary Japanese writers such as Haruki Murakami, Hiromi Kawakami, and Yoko Ogawa, with a unique combination of sensuality and nostalgia and a remarkable attention to changes in nature and in the human soul.
