Kenji Miyazava - a poet, a storyteller and a novelist of the 20th century - published only two small books during his lifetime. Only years after the death of Miyazava, numerous poems and fairy tales were discovered in his house. Now his works are a classic of Japanese literature, known to every child and adult in Japan. The collection "Night on a train on a silver river" allows you to touch the piercing and mysterious creativity of Miyazava. In his tales, the reader will meet the synthesis of Buddhist ideas and avant -garde mythopoetics, inherent only to Miyazave. Here, wind and stones think and talk with a person, anthropomorphic animals become heroes of stories and communicate with the outside world. Everything is filled with an inescapable sparkling life. The collection includes 33 works, including three stories translated for the first time: "Wild Pear", "Dragon and Poet" and "Wild Gusenok". "What is written in this book, I heard in the forests and fields near the railways, and they told me all the rainbow and moonlight ..." Kenji Miyazava
