Review of 'The Makioka sisters' on 'Goodreads'

what a pleasure to read Tanizaki!

I really enjoyed this book, learnt a lot of things about japanese society in the 40s and got close to the Makioka family without any issue, each character was very well written and I enjoyed reading about their struggles and daily life.

can't wait to read more of this author!
