Beautiful collection of stories. The reading in Japanese is difficult at times due to the kept original style of the 1910s. Very entailing about Japanese culture. At the same time, it raises many questions, especially as done by Mishima if the book can almost be regarded as a novel. For novelists interested in Japanese culture, it is a classic.

I took a course on this collection when studying abroad and fell in love with how beautiful the language was in these incredibly short, atmospheric, ghost stories. This book was also my first prolonged exposure to であり体 endings and I love the way they sound in writing.
