Japanese stories are special, different, with simpler prose but yet more melancholic and full of emotions.
This story had the potential of being great but I couldn't shake the feeling that there was something missing or overlooked. Half way through, I did a little search, and I found out that there is indeed something missing; the story is incomplete, Kawabata committed suicide and Dandelions were published posthumous.Â
Even so, I loved the atmosphere: sadness, melancholy, loneliness, love... and a few brilliant passages.Â
I will definitely read a complete work by Kawabata, I am sure it will be worth it.Â
