    Just completed reading Yasunari Kawabata's 'Snow Country' and 'The House of Sleeping Beauties'. The first is a wonderful haiku-in-prose novel. The second one can be termed esoteric - a subject never handled by any author. The translation from Japaneese is excellent.

    (Kawabata was awarded the Nobel prize for literature in 1968.)

    Half way thru Guntar Grass's 'Tin Drum' (this year Nobel award winner). Magical realism at its best - a shade better than even my all time favorite Gabu (Marquez)

    Yes Arul, with Grass's drumming pnome Oskar, I can walk along into his fascinating world. With Gabu, it is sort of getting swept off the feet and flying along.
