In Ghostly Japan
幽冥日本
Lafcadio Hearn
小泉八云
A collection of ghostly stories from Lafcadio Hearn. Deathless images of ghosts and goblins, touches of folklore and superstition, salted with traditions of the nation. While some of these stories contain ghosts and monsters, others are not ghostly or ghastly at all. 'Bits of Poetry' offers an engaging study on verse, and 'Japanese Buddhist Proverbs' explains the meaning of several aphorisms based on Japanese cultural references.
