Sinopsis

Impulsado por la nostalgia, Oki Toshio, un escritor casado, decide viajar a Kyoto para oír las campanas del templo en el Año Nuevo. Pero además quiere ver a Otoko, antigua amante a la que había humillado. Todavía hermosa, Otoko, ahora pintora, vive con su protegida Keiko, una joven amoral, sensual y apasionada de apenas veinte años. Y lo que comienza como un reencuentro sentimental entre el maduro Oki y la discreta Otoko se convertirá, por voluntad de Keiko, decidida a vengar a su mentora, en un cruel drama de amor y destrucción.

Entre la ternura y la obsesión, la serenidad y el arrebato, Lo bello y lo triste es una de las obras cumbre de Kawabata, capaz de convertir el mero ajuste de un ceñidor en algo infinitamente erótico y perverso.
