Literatură japoneză în limba engleză

This is a collection of 200 Japanese proverbs with illustrations and explanations for each saying.

Yurei is the Japanese word for “ghost.” They are the souls of dead people, unable-or unwilling-to shuffle off this mortal coil. Yurei are many things, but “friendly” isn’t the first word that comes to mind. Not every yurei is dangerous, but they are all driven by emotions so uncontrollably powerful that they have taken on a life of their own: rage, sadness, devotion, a desire for revenge, or even the firm belief that they are still alive. This book, the third in the authors’ best selling Attack! series gives detailed information on 39 of the creepiest Yurei stalking Japan, along with detailed histories and defensive tactics should you have the misfortune to encounter one.
