Title : The Master of Go Material Type: printed text Authors: Yasunari Kawabata, Author ; Edward G. Seidensticker, Translator Publisher: London: Yellow Jersey Press. Publication Date: 2006 Pagination: 220 p. Layout: ill. Size: 19.8 cm. Price: 450 Bht. General note: Go is a game of strategy in which two players attempt to surround each other s black or white stones. Simple in its fundamentals, infinitely complex in its execution, it is an essential expression of the Japanese sensibility. And in his fictional chronicle of a match played between a revered and invincible Master and a younger, more progressive challenger, Yasunari Kawabata captured the moment in which the immutable traditions of imperial Japan met the onslaught of the twentieth century. he competition between the Master of Go and his opponent, Otake, is waged over several months and layered in ceremony. But beneath the game s decorum lie tensions that consume not only the players themselves but their families and friends tensions that turn this particular contest into a duel that can only end in one man s death. Luminous in its detail, both suspenseful and serene, The Master of Go is an elegy for an entire society, written with the poetic economy and psychological acumen that brought Kawabata the Nobel Prize for Literature.

[LCSH]LiteratureAbstract: In an astonishing feat of narrative invention, our most ambitious novelist imagines an alternate version of American history.
In 1940 Charles A. Lindbergh, heroic aviator and rabid isolationist, is elected President. Shortly thereafter, he negotiates a cordial “understanding” with Adolf Hitler, while the new government embarks on a program of folksy anti-Semitism.
For one boy growing up in Newark, Lindbergh’s election is the first in a series of ruptures that threaten to destroy his small, safe corner of America–and with it, his mother, his father, and his older brother.Curricular : GE Record link: http://libsearch.siu.ac.th/siu/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=27657 The Plot Against America [printed text] / Philip Roth, Author . - [S.l.] : New York: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2005 . - 391 p. ; 17.5 cm.
