Glimpses of Unfamiliar Japan

Meer over het boek

Set in the late 19th century, the narrative explores the transformative period of Meiji Era Japan through the eyes of Lafcadio Hearn, a Greek-Irish writer. As one of the first Westerners to immerse himself in Japanese culture, Hearn offers a unique perspective on the customs and daily life of this isolated nation. His experiences as an English teacher provide a fascinating glimpse into a pivotal moment in Japan's history, bridging the gap between East and West.
