- Summary:
-
A large extended family gathers for the funeral of the patriarch, who has died at the age of 85. The action centers on a wake held the night before at a country meetinghouse near the old man’s home. The dead man’s wife Shinobu pre-deceased him by 14 years. Otherwise, the narrator divides his attention more or less evenly among the man’s survivors, from the 60-year-old eldest son Haruhisa down to the three-year-old great-grandson Shūto, illumining each individual’s views on family, and on life and death.
