"This is the journal of Utsugi, a seventy-seven-year-old man of refined tastes who is recovering from a stroke. He discovers that, while his body is decaying, his libido still rages on -- unwittingly sparked by the gentle, kindly attentions of his daughter-in-law Satsuko, a chic, flashy dancer with a shady past. Pitiful and ridiculous as he is, Utsugi is without a trace of self-pity, and his diary shines with self-effacing good humor. At once hilarious and of a sadness, Diary of a Mad Old Man is a brilliant depiction of the relationship between eros and the will to live -- a novel of the tragicomedy of human existence."
"Un vieil homme se laisse séduire par sa belle-fille, Satsuko. Ancienne danseuse de music-hall, elle profite de lui pour mener une vie de luxe tout en lui accordant des privautés savamment limitées. Reprise de la nouvelle traduction parue en 1998."
