From aristocratic to common, from refinement to vulgarity, from the sacred to the profane, from the transcendent to the mundane, the most diverse aspects of human nature that we all share are unveiled in these seventy tales from the classic Konjaku Monogatari-shu, a rich and unique collection of stories compiled in the first half of the 12th century, presenting a kaleidoscopic and evocative panorama of ancient Japan.
