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.

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.
