This unique version of The Tale of Genji is a fresh and epoch-making approach to a work many consider the quintessence of Japan-British cross-cultural art, and one of the greatest works of literature of all time. This new version recreates the beauty of Waley’s poetic prose in modern Japanese, deepening the reader’s appreciation of Lady Murasaki’s original and Waley’s vision. The fourth volume is now available at major book shops and amazon.co.jp
