The Key
"At once sensational and serious...the translation by Howard Hibbett beautifully captures the male-female interplay of the two diaries." -- The New York Times Book Review"That [The Key] is a work of art can never be in doubt. Tanizaki's style in this novel has been compared...to that of Andre Gide, and Howard Hibbett's translation bears an appropriate resemblance to ...Gide in English." -- New Statesman
