    <![CDATA[The story of Mizue, a Japanese housewife, and Kase, a traditional-style garden designer hired by her husband to landscape their home.  As the garden takes shape, Mizue wakens to a new sensuality and desire, and her carefully structured home life begins to crumble.  Author Masaaki Tachihara explores the psychology of human passion in an oblique language filled with references to Japanese garden art and aesthetic values. A disturbing and alluring work.]]>
