Widely considered the first novel ever written, Murasaki Shikibu offers a rare glimpse into the exclusive and eremitic world of Heian Japan and its formalities and traditions. Genji is an adventurous prince, prone to impulses of the heart and given to the ways of romance and love. As the favourite son of the Emperor, his position at court is necessary but volatile due to his poetic nature. Written in the 11th-century, Tale Of Genji (Abridged) is a beautiful story that follows the exploits of our young prince as he falls for a parade of beauties, including a mysterious woman known as the Lady Of The Orange Blossoms, the Akashi Lady, and even his father’s own Empress. More than a love story, this is a compelling depiction of a unique and ultra-refined society of Japan’s court. | The Tale Of Genji by Murasaki Shikibu, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
