Ogata Shingo is growing old, and his memory is failing him. At night he hears
only the sound of death in the distant rumble from the mountain. The
relationships which have previously defined his life - with his son, his wife,
and his attractive daughter-in-law - are dissolving, and Shingo is caught
between love and destruction. Lyrical and precise, The Sound of the Mountain
explores in immaculately crafted prose the changing roles of love and the truth
we face in ageing.
