Book excerpt: Following the death of his young daughter, the narrator moves to Japan with the project of writing an essay on Japanese literature. There, on the other side of the earth, he experiences a series of incidents that connect him to a recurrent childhood dream and allow him to explore the depth of his own grief through the stories of others. Sarinagara is a poignant meditation on the nature of grief, art, and memory. In Japanese, "Sarinagara" means "and yet." This word is the last word of one of the most famous poems of Japanese literature.
