Shadowings

Shadowings is a collection of essays written by Lafcadio Hearn, a Greek-born writer who spent much of his life in Japan. The book is a reflection on Hearn's experiences living in Japan and his observations of Japanese culture. The essays cover a range of topics, including Japanese literature, art, religion, and folklore. Hearn's writing style is poetic and evocative, and he often uses personal anecdotes to illustrate his points. Shadowings is a fascinating glimpse into the mind of a writer who was deeply influenced by Japanese culture and who helped introduce it to the Western world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
