Book excerpt: In this new edition of "e;stories and studies of strange things"e; accompanied by illustrations by Lester Banzuelo, Lafcadio Hearn draws from his life in Japan and sketches a delicate, haunting world of snow maidens and faceless ghosts, corpse-eaters and trickster demons, soul mountains and enchanted sleep. With poetic imagination and cultural insight distilled by a lucid literary style, Hearn ushers us into the mysteries and marvels of an island country born of the sun and shrouded in mist from the sea.
