Kwaidan
by Lafcadio HearnKnown primarily as an early interpreter of Japanese culture and customs, the famous writer Lafcadio Hearn also wrote ghost stories--"delicate, transparent, ghostly sketches"--about his adopted land. Many of the stories found in Kwaidan, "stories and studies of strange things," are based on Japanese tales of long ago told to him by his wife; others possibly have a Chinese origin. All have been re-colored and reshaped by Hearn's inimitable hand. Some critics attribute Hearn's fascination with eerie tales to his partial blindness. Whatever its roots, he was clearly drawn to the hidden realms of the spirit world and to strange facts and marvels. In this collection of unforgettably haunting stories, Hearn brings together "the meeting of three ways"--the austere dreams of India, the subtle beauty of Japan and the relentless science of the Western world.This collection of supernatural tales includes:A musician called upon to perform for the deadMan-eating goblinsInsects who uncannily mimic human behaviorA perfect treat for fans of the strange and otherworldly.
Kwaidan: Stories and Studies of Strange Things (Classics With Ruskin Ser. #Vol. 4)
by Lafcadio HearnA classic book of ghost stories from one of the world&’s leading nineteenth-century writers, the author of In Ghostly Japan and Japanese Fairy Tales. Published just months before Lafcadio Hearn&’s death in 1904, Kwaidan features several stories and a brief nonfiction study on insects: butterflies, mosquitoes, and ants. The tales included are reworkings of both written and oral Japanese traditions, including folk tales, legends, and superstitions. &“At age thirty-nine, Hearn travelled on a magazine assignment to Japan, and never came back. At a moment when that country, under Emperor Meiji, was weathering the shock and upheaval of forced economic modernization, Hearn fell deeply in love with the nation&’s past. He wrote fourteen books on all manner of Japanese subjects but was especially infatuated with the customs and culture preserved in Japanese folktales—particularly the ghost-story genre known as kaidan. . . . He died in 1904, and, by the time his &‘Japanese tales&’ were translated into Japanese, in the nineteen-twenties, the country&’s transformation was so complete that Hearn was hailed as a kind of guardian of tradition; his kaidan collections are still part of the curriculum in many Japanese schools.&” —The New Yorker

L'eau
by Lee PletzersNote de l’auteur: Quand j'avais seize ans et que je vivais à Wellsford et sortais avec une femme qui restera anonyme, nous sommes tombés sur un puits en traversant la ferme de quelqu'un. C'était juste un trou dans le sol couvert d’un couvercle en bois. Les mauvaises herbes avaient poussé dessus et les vaches étaient restées à l'écart. Ma petite amie (de l'époque) m'avait dit que c'était le puits de Cléments. Étant nouveau dans la région, je n'en avais jamais entendu parler, alors elle m'a raconté l'histoire. On l'a surnommé le Puits Sauteur et apparemment quelqu'un s'est suicidé par ... tu as deviné, en s’y jetant et s’était noyé. Naturellement je ne la croyais pas et à l'époque il n'y avait pas d’Internet pour vérifier les faits. Des semaines plus tard, au pub (oui, j'avais seize ans - je sais, je sais), j'ai rencontré un vieux chroniqueur qui m’avait raconté à peu près la même histoire, quoique beaucoup plus excitante. Maintenant, à l'âge de quarante et un ans, je n’y crois toujours pas, mais quand on m'a demandé la soumission de cette anthologie, je me suis souvenu du puits et quand ceci a été écrit, la Nouvelle-Zélande souffrait d'une longue sécheresse. Quel meilleur endroit pour avoir de l'eau, à mon avis.
