Een Dwaas Verliefd by Jun'ichirō Tanizaki

A middle-aged office worker becomes obsessively infatuated with a young, Westernized woman he takes into his home, grooming her into the image of his fantasies; as she blossoms into a vain, manipulative figure, the relationship inverts, exposing his erotic dependence, loss of control, and broader tensions between modern Western influence and traditional Japanese values.
