Short Fiction of Medieval Japan
Translated by Virginia Skord
University of Hawaii Press, 1991 - ISBN: 9780824815696
The stories in this collection constitute just a small portion of a vast body of some four hundred short narratives known as otogizoshi. They represent a cross section of medieval Japan in its richness and complexity, a panoply of life teeming with all the possibilities and contradictions of the age.
