"The Badger's Money"

"The Grateful Foxes"

I am so excited to find this available on iTunes!  This is a very difficult book to find even at the library.  I almost got in trouble with my local library because I kept it out so long.  Mitford&#39;s retelling of Japanese folklore and accounts of eyewitness events truly give you a look into a culture that can be so fascinating and mystifying.

Years ago, when I was first reading &#34;The Eta Maiden and the Hatamoto&#34; I was so sure that it would have a happy ending.  My Japanese wife who was in Japan at the time kept trying to tell me that most certainly it did not.  Of course she was right and I was crushed.  However, I had learned a very important lesson about Japanese culture.  Maintaining one&#39;s honor should always be more important than doing what you want to do.

Hopefully they will get to the entire book but I am sure you will enjoy whatever is available.

Sugoi!

Amazing!
