Heike Monogatari
Heike Monogatari | Helen Craig McCullough
2 posts | 3 read | 4 to read
The Tale of the Heike is one of the masterworks of Japanese literature, ranking with The Tal of Genji in quality and prestige. This new translation is not only far more readable than earlier ones, it is also much more faithful to the content and style of the original. Intended for the general audience as well as the specialist, this edition is highly annotated.

I adored this. Yoshitsune and Benkei's relationship is my favorite part. Action-packed, tragic, fascinating. A- from me.
