Lafcadio Hearn In Japan [EPUB ebook] 

"This book, "Lafcadio Hearn in Japan, " is our Japanese appreciation; we observed him under many different shades, but our appreciation of his art, and also of him as a man-unique in character doubtless, sincere even to a fault, -and as a professor in our Imperial University, is uniform, I think, through every chapter. Where you will find a frequent repetition in the book is the exact place we wish to emphasize; and if the book appears to lack a certain unity, I will say that it was not my intention to write a biography."Yone Noguchi
