When Ruby McTavish died, she was not only the richest heiress in North Carolina, she was also the most scandalous. Famed as a child when she was kidnapped, Ruby outlived four husbands and until her last breath was the sole mistress of Ashby House, the family estate in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

After her death, the mansion - along with a nine-figure fortune - passes into the hands of her adopted son Camden. To everyone's surprise, Cam shows no interest in either the house or the money. Instead, he starts a new life with his beloved Jules. Both are done with the past. Alas, the past is not done with them, and years later it forces them to return to Ashby House.

The novel 'A Stranger' (1964) is one of the most famous and characteristic works of Kobo Abe, still relevant today, 60 years after its publication, because it examines the theme of human alienation in the ruthless conditions of a highly developed industrial society.

This classic of post-war Japanese literature describes a strange physical transformation that reveals the duplicity of the world we live in. The narrator is a scientist, deformed in a laboratory accident, in which he loses his face and with it - his connection to other people. Even his wife is disgusted by him. His only way back to the world is to create a mask so perfect that it is unnoticeable.

But he soon discovers that such a mask is more than a disguise: it is another self; a self that is capable of anything. A merciless reflection on nature, identity and social contact, 'A Stranger' is an intellectual horror story of the highest order.

Kobo Abe (1924-1993) was a novelist, playwright, poet, and director, considered one of the most significant representatives of the rich modern Japanese literature. He was born in Tokyo, but spent his childhood and most of his youth in Manchuria. At one time he was among the strongest contenders for the Nobel Prize in Literature, but he died before being awarded it
