About this ebook

Obra maestra de la literatura japonesa del XX, y tercera parte de la trilogía inaugurada con "Sanshiro" y "Daisuke", "La puerta" narra la historia de Sosuke, un humilde oficinista tokiota de mediana edad que comparte su vida con su esposa Oyone, en el banal anonimato de una casa situada en la base de un barranco. La pareja, cuyo temprano matrimonio fue celebrado casi de modo clandestino, se ve abocada a aceptar bajo su techo a Koroku, el hermano menor de Sosuke, que se convierte en una fuente de conflictos. A la vez, la salud de Oyone se resiente y llega la noticia de la inesperada visita de un fantasma del pasado. Sobre la pareja se cierne entonces un periodo de crisis, y Sosuke se ve obligado a abandonar de manera temporal la tranquilidad de su vida doméstica para retirarse a un monasterio zen y allí meditar sobre su destino.

Dotada de un profundo simbolismo, "La puerta" se ha ganado el privilegio de ser considerada por la crítica una de las obras literarias más profundas de la edad moderna en Japón.

Soseki Natsume

Natsume Sōseki (1867-1916) was a Japanese novelist. Born in Babashita, a town in the Edo region of Ushigome, Sōseki was the youngest of six children. Due to financial hardship, he was adopted by a childless couple who raised him from 1868 until their divorce eight years later, at which point Sōseki returned to his biological family. Educated in Tokyo, he took an interest in literature and went on to study English and Chinese Classics while at the Tokyo Imperial University. He started his career as a poet, publishing haiku with the help of his friend and fellow-writer Masaoka Shiki. In 1895, he found work as a teacher at a middle school in Shikoku, which would serve as inspiration for his popular novel Botchan (1906). In 1900, Sōseki was sent by the Japanese government to study at University College London. Later described as “the most unpleasant years in [his] life,” Sōseki’s time in London introduced him to British culture and earned him a position as a professor of English literature back in Tokyo. Recognized for such novels as Sanshirō (1908) and Kokoro (1914), Sōseki was a visionary artist whose deep commitment to the life of humanity has earned him praise from such figures as Haruki Murakami, who named Sōseki as his favorite writer.
