Product description
WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE 2025Beauty, in László Krasznahorkai's novel, reflects, however fleeting, the sacred - even if we are mostly unable to bear it.
In Seiobo There Below the Japanese goddess Seiobo s to mortal realms in search of perfection.
An ancient Buddha being restored
the Italian renaissance painter Perugino managing his workshop
a Japanese Noh actor rehearsing
a fanatic of Baroque music lecturing to a handful of old villagers
tourists intruding into the rituals of Japan's most sacred shrine
a heron as it gracefully hunts its prey.
Told in chapters that sweep across the world and through time, covering the furthest reaches of human experience, Krasznahorkai asks: What is sacred? How do we define beauty? What makes great art endure?Melancholic and mesmerisingly beautiful, this novel shows how to glimpse the divine through extraordinary art and human endeavour.
Translated by Ottilie Mulzet.
