Complete and unabridged, with 94 full-page plates by Katsushika Hokusai, 1760 – 1849, Katsushika Hokusai 葛飾北斎 (1760-1849) and Utagawa Kuniyoshi. Japanese ghost stories retold in English by a man who had married into the country and taken its citizenship: the woman of the snow, the blind minstrel whose body is written over with scripture, and a second volume of curios - insects, dreams, and the noises a house makes. Hearn heard most of these from his wife and set them down without softening the endings. Both books are here. Ninety-four plates, from Hokusai to Munch, gather the dusk, demons and drifting figures that haunt these tales.
