The four stories in this volume date from the firstand second decades of Tanizaki’s long career and reflect themes thatappear throughout his work: exoticism, sexuality, sadomasochism,contrasts between traditional and modern societies, disparities betweenappearance and reality, the power of dreams, amorality, an interestin cinema, and a fascination with the techniques of storytelling.
