Excerpt from Hands Around (Reigen) A Cycle of Ten Dialogues: Completely Rendered Into English, Authorized TranslationHumanity seems gayest when dancing on the brink of a volcano. The culture of a period pre ceding a social cataclysm is marked by a spirit of light wit and sophisticated elegance which finds expression in a literature of a distinct type. This literature is light-hearted, audacious and self-con scious. It can treat with the most charming in souciance subjects which in another age would have been awkward or even vulgar. But with the riper experience of a period approaching its end the writers feel untrammeled in the choice of theme by pride or prejudice knowing that they will never transgress the line of good taste.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
