Tanizaki was a great writer. He understood the fetish-making fecundity of love, and the satisfactions it offers even while giving pain, and its perverse, inverse accountings.--John Updike
Tanizaki is one of my favorites. His books are about love and very often perverse aspects of love.--Henry Miller
The outstanding Japanese novelist of this century.--Edmund White

An absorbing read...quite likely you'll gulp it all down in a single sitting.--Tony Malone
