This 1898 collection is split into two parts: The first, ‚Exotics, ‚ consists of Hearn’s Japanese journalism; the second, ‚Retrospectives, ‚ contains his personal essays and reflections. Standouts are ‚Fuji no Yama, ‚ recounting the author’s grueling ascent of Mt. Fuji, and ‚Insect Musicians, ‚ relating the now-vanished market in music-making insects.

Über den Autor
Patrick Lafcadio Hearn (1850-1904), also known as Koizumi Yakumo, was born in Greece, raised in Ireland, spent years in America, and finally became a citizen of Japan. A journalist and translator, he played a major role in introducing Japanese culture to the West. His translations of Japanese fairy tales and ghost stories were especially influential.
