LONGLISTED FOR THE 2016 MAN BOOKER INTERNATIONAL PRIZE An
astonishing interweaving of myth, fantasy, history and
autobiography, Kenzaburo Oe's Death by Water is the shimmering
masterpiece of a Nobel Prize-winning author. For the first time in
his long life, Nobel-laureate Kogito Choko is suffering from
writer's block. The book that he wishes to write would examine the
turbulent relationship he had with his father, and the guilt he
feels about being absent the night his father drowned in a
storm-swollen river; but how to write about a man he never really
knew? When his estranged sister unexpectedly calls, she offers
Choko a remedy - she has in her possession an old and mysterious
red trunk, the contents of which promise to unlock the many secrets
of the man who disappeared from their lives decades before.
