The Hunting Gun, set in the period immediately following WWII, follows the consequences of a tragic love affair among well-to-do people in an exclusive suburb of the great commercial cities of Osaka and Kobe. Told from the viewpoints of three different women, this is a story of the psychological impact of illicit love. First viewed through the eyes of Shoko, who learns of the affair through reading her mother's diary, then through the eyes of Midori, who had long known about the affair of her husband with Saiko, and finally through the eyes of Saiko herself.
Reseña del editor
This powerful short novel was one of the two works of fiction that won Inoue the prestigious Akutagawa Prize. Set in the period after the Second World War, it relates the doomed love affair of Josuke, owner of the hunting gun, which is a symbol of his lonely, detached existence. Inoue describes the psychological impact of an illicit love affair that Josuke has, and the shattering impact it has for all around him.
