Myths and Legends of Japan. By F. Hadland Davis. Full Audiobook
"Myths and Legends of Japan" by F. Hadland Davis is a collection of Japanese myths and legends that have been retold in English. The book begins with the early myths of Japan, which the author describes as "quaint, beautiful, quasi-humorous." These are followed by legends celebrating early heroes and warriors, and the earliest examples of the Japanese romance, "The Bamboo-Cutter and the Moon-Maiden." The book also includes tales of the sea and of Mount Fuji, accounts of superstitions and supernatural beings, and much more. The author has done an excellent job of retelling these stories in a way that is both engaging and informative. The book is a great introduction to Japanese mythology and culture, and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in these topics.
