With the ethereal tone and aesthetic styling characteristic of Kawabata's prose, The Old Capital tells the story of Chieko, the adopted daughter of a Kyoto kimono designer, Takichiro, and his wife, Shige. Set in the traditional city of Kyoto, Japan, this deeply poetic story revolves around Chieko who becomes bewildered and troubled as she discovers the true facets of her past. With the harmony and time-honored customs of a Japanese backdrop, the story becomes poignant as Chieko’s longing and confusion develops. 川端康成（1899-1972），日本作家。生於大阪。1968年以 “敏銳的感受，高超的敘事技巧，表現日本人的精神實質”獲諾貝爾文學獎。代表作有《伊豆的舞女》、《雪國》、《古都》、《千隻鶴》、《山音》、《睡美人》等。
