The Woman in the Dunes by Kobo Abe

The Woman in the Dunes by Kobo Abe

An amateur entomologist misses the last bus and is offered a night's lodging in a house at the bottom of a sand pit. In the morning the rope ladder is gone.

He must shovel sand every night or the village above is buried. Abe turns this into a study of freedom, routine and the terrible possibility that a person can be made to accept almost anything.

A masterpiece of postwar Japanese literature, and the basis of the celebrated film.
