Fabulous.
Ordered as a birthday present as my brother has been in Japan for a year and he said it was a very different present and one he looked forward to reading. He said it was a lovely gift and one of his favourites as he can now look back at the sights and learning and reflect on it’s history more. The first one delivered was bashed, but they sent a replacement for me (which arrived 3 days after).

Beautiful book with a solid collection of stories. The book is a hardcover with some contrasting colours on the cover and some artwork throughout the book. There is a nice margin on the pages so it doesn’t feel as crowded, or as busy as some novels do. One thing I wasn’t expecting but do appreciate is that there are footnotes featured at the footer throughout the book that provide further information, explanation, context, or fun tidbits to further enhance the experience and understanding of the reader.

Aesthetically speaking, this is probably the most beautiful book I've ever seen. The hard cover is very detailed, the pages are well done, and the illustrations are beautiful. As for the content, the Tales are short but interesting. As a non-native English speaker, some of the tales were tougher to read and fully understand, however it was still a good read.

Das Buch kann ich wirklich jedem empfehlen, der sich für Japan interessiert. Die Geschichten wurden gut ausgewählt und durch wunderschöne Illustrationen ergänzt. Ich habe das Buch an einem Tag durchgelesen. Ich konnte es einfach nicht weglegen, weil es mir so gut gefallen hat.

This book is great, it has many Japanese stories and the illustrations just add to the charm. The cover is beautiful and a great display piece for book lovers, but I wish the book was a bit longer, as it is relatively short
