The 15 classic essays collected in Kokoro examine the inner spiritual life of Japan. The title itself can be translated as "heart," "spirit" or "inner meaning," and that's exactly what this collection teaches us about Japan. Sometimes touching and always compelling, the writings here tell the stories of the people and social codes that make Japan the unique place it is. "Kimiko" paints the portrait of a beautiful geisha; "By Force of Karma" tells the story of a Buddhist monk; and in "A Conservative," we come to know the thoughts and actions of a Samurai. As an early interpreter of Japan to the West, Lafcadio Hearn was without parallel in his time. His numerous books about that country were read with a fascination that was a tribute to his keen powers of observation and the vividness of his descriptions. Today, even though Japan has changed greatly from what it was when he wrote about it, his writing is still valid, for it captures the essence of the country--an essence that has actually changed a good deal less than outward appearances might suggest. In a word, the Japanese character and the Japanese tradition are still fundamentally the same as Hearn found them to be, and for this reason, his books are still extremely revealing to readers in the West.

Upon his arrival in Japan in 1890, Lafcadio Hearn found himself enamored with the culture, people, and stories of the country, and would make Japan his home until his death in 1904. His collections of stories published during this time became the most popular of Hearn's writings, and earned him veneration worldwide as not only a great translator of Japanese mythology, but as a sensational teller of strange and wonderfully macabre tales. Collected together here are some of his most notable retellings of Asian ghost stories. Collected from "Some Chinese Ghosts", "Glimpses of Unfamiliar Japan", "Kokoro", "Out of the East", "Exotics and Retrospectives", "Gleanings in Buddha-Fields", "In Ghostly Japan", "Shadowings", "A Japanese Miscellany", "Kotto", "Kwaidan", and "The Romance Of The Milky Way, And Other Studies & Stories", this volume includes forty of Hearn's most chilling ghost stories. This representative edition of "Collected Ghost Stories" exhibits both Lafcadio Hearn's gift of story-telling as well as his importance in popularizing Asian culture at the turn of the 20th century. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.
