The first major English translation of one of contemporary
Japan's bestselling and most celebrated authors
From Akutagawa Award-winning author Yoko Ogawa comes a haunting
trio of novellas about love, fertility, obsession, and how even the
most innocent gestures may contain a hairline crack of cruel
intent.
A lonely teenage girl falls in love with her foster brother as
she watches him leap from a high diving board into a pool--a
peculiar infatuation that sends unexpected ripples through her
life.
A young woman records the daily moods of her pregnant sister in
a diary, taking meticulous note of a pregnancy that may or may not
be a hallucination--but whose hallucination is it, hers or her
sister's?
A woman nostalgically visits her old college dormitory on the
outskirts of Tokyo, a boarding house run by a mysterious triple
amputee with one leg.
Hauntingly spare, beautiful, and twisted, "The Diving Pool "is a
disquieting and at times darkly humorous collection of novellas
about normal people who suddenly discover their own dark
possibilities.
