The Life of a Stupid Man

The Life of a Stupid Man

Brand: Penguin Classics   |   Status: Hết hàng
150.000₫

'a sort of literature-ified autobiography (it seems), and very posey and elegant rather than passionate and sincere, but despite this and because it's short, where beauty and elegance can work as melancholy, it somehow does manage to be a good version of 'i was a bit superficial and then got pierced by love and now i'm an old/er man with regrets' and is so beautifully written (and foreign enough) that it is a different enough working of the topic and worth reading. Best of the Penguin 80p books.' - Amazon Reviewer

'What is the life of a human being - a drop of dew, a flash of lightning? This is so sad, so sad.'

Autobiographical stories from one of Japan's masters of modernist story-telling.

Introducing Little Black Classics: 80 books for Penguin's 80th birthday. Little Black Classics celebrate the huge range and diversity of Penguin Classics, with books from around the world and across many centuries. They take us from a balloon ride over Victorian London to a garden of blossom in Japan, from Tierra del Fuego to 16th-century California and the Russian steppe. Here are stories lyrical and savage; poems epic and intimate; essays satirical and inspirational; and ideas that have shaped the lives of millions.

Ryunosuke Akutagawa (1892-1927). Akutagawa's Rashomon and Seventeen Other Stories is also available in Penguin Classics.
