内容説明・目次

内容説明

For the first two years of her life the child seems to float in a world of her own - eating, digesting, excreting - without sound, motion, spark of recognition. Her concerned parents think she might be a vegetable. Only Nishio-san, her Japanese nanny, knows what depths lie beneath the passive exterior. And then, set off by her first taste of chocolate, the child bursts into existence. Set in Japan, THE CHARACTER OF RAIN is a portrait of the artist as an infant. Amelie Nothomb reaches deep into the early years of life, evoking them with brilliance and tenderness. Not since MY LIFE AS A DOG has a novel described the riches, wonders, and traumas of childhood with such intense clarity.
