In this collection of classic ghost stories from Japan, beautiful princesses turn out to be frogs, paintings come alive, deadly spectral brides haunt the living and a samurai delivers the baby of a Shinto goddess with mystical help. Here are all the phantoms and ghouls of Japanese folklore: 'rokuro-kubi', whose heads separate from their bodies at night; 'jikininki', or flesh-eating goblins; and terrifying faceless 'mujina' who haunt lonely neighbourhoods.

Japanese culture has fascinated the West ever since the country’s doors opened up in the 1800s. In many ways, Japan has remained elusive, and people have travelled from all around the world to see for themselves how unique this nation remains. Another way of exploring this enigmatic culture is through its literature. The English language succeeds surprisingly well in revealing the Japanese sense of life.

This had 3 volumes in one. I wanted to listen to something at work to make the day pass, and this was it. From the introduction to the narration, each story was very easy to listen to. I could see the scenery in my mind as I listened to it. This is a definite must have on road trips too.

3-in-1!
This book provides great value considering it is really a 3 book compilation. The Kwaidan contains a bunch of Japanese ghost stories. This was refreshing and a side of Japanese culture that I haven’t ever heard about. The other two books in this omnibus felt a little more familiar because I have some knowledge of Japanese mythology. They were still entertaining and informative. I also appreciate the historical context sections. The narration was very well done.
