Knopf, New York in 1972, and was originally published in Japanese in 1951 under the title "Meijin".

Head and tail of spine slightly creased and rubbed. Corners sharp. Boards clean with just some browning at the edges). Edges of page block clean without any foxing.

Spine tight. ***In a very good colour-illustrated dustwrapper, which has not been price-clipped, retaining the original publisher's printed price of £2.20 net. The dustwrapper is complete, but is quite heavily rubbed and creased at the head and tail of the spine. No chips or tears. Spine of dustwrapper unfaded. Dustwrapper just lightly marked but still bright. ***204mm x 145mm. 188 pages including four pages of Notes at the back of the book. ***'The game of go, which shares a common ancestry with chess, arouses in Japan the competitive fervour that chess has long evoked in Russia and is now beginning to excite in the West. In 1928 Kawabata covered a championship go match sponsored by his Tokyo newspaper. This intricate novel is the transmutation of that epic context into fiction. The challenger, young, aggressive, gregarious, faces the Master, frail, aged, solitary. It is a duel between the Master's classical remote style and the ferocious attack of his young challenger. But the confrontation symbolises a far wider conflict, a clash between modes, between generations, and ultimately between life and death. This restrained and subtle novel is a work of astonishing density which draws from its obsessional core expanding layers of meaning.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***'"The Master of Go" is a novel by the Nobel Prize winning Japanese author Yasunari Kawabata. First published in serial form in 1951, Kawabata considered it his finest work. Sharply distinct from the rest of his literary output, "The Master of Go" is the only one of Kawabata's novels that the author considered to be finished.' (Wiki) ***First impression of the first UK edition of Yasunari Kawabata's most famous book, complete in its original dustwrapper. Kawabata won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1968, the first Japanese author to receive the award. Yasunari Kawabata's first UK editions are quite uncommon. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. Codice articolo 8522
