Description:

"The three stories contained here - "Dark Pictures," "A Feeling of Disintegration," and "A Red Moon in Her Face" - are dark and haunting tales of young men whose universal desires and anxieties are over-shadowed by memories of the brutality of World War II. The main characters are all young men who have lived through the war but have emerged far from unscathed.". "Influenced by symbolism and the techniques of European modernists, Noma's writing will seem both familiar and eerie to Western readers. These translations offer for the first time the chance for English readers to appreciate the work of this difficult and haunting writer."--BOOK JACKET.
