### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    History Brought to Life
  

*by B***. on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 24, 2016*

I came across this small gem of a book while browsing Amazon's Japanese history section.  In exquisite prose poetry, a 12th century gentleman turned monk chronicles a series of disasters that befell Kyoto in quick succession, including earthquakes, fire, famine and more.  Each time, he rebuilds a smaller house until he ultimately chooses life as a hermit in a tiny, rude hut in the mountains.  His stark and plaintive voice reaches us clearly and with great immediacy, remarkable given the divide of many centuries and a very different time and place.  SO glad this treasure has been preserved and that this wonderful translation is available today!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Very good read!
  

*by D***L on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 27, 2014*

The writing, story, and poetry are great!  The translation appears to be very good with alternate interpretations where appropriate.  Unfortunately, this is a true paperback, unlike many of the Japanese good quality paperbacks I am used to in this genre of literature.  Poor paper stock and printing means it will not last!  Also, the illustrations, while good and authentic, suffer from the same problem.  I will read it again sometime and then put it away and watch for a really good edition.  The seller is excellent  and sent it earlier than anticipated.  I would buy from them again.

    Lovely just a tad expensive for such a short translation

Lovely just a tad expensive for such a short translation. If cheaper perhaps more would enjoy it but perhaps they would not cherish it then, who knows?
