Synopsis "Lafcadio Hearn's "The Faceless Ghost" and Other Macabre Tales From Japan: A Graphic Novel "

Eerie traditional Japanese ghost stories retold in a graphic novel format.Nominated for the prestigious EISNER BOOK AWARD, 20162016 YALSA 'Great Graphic Novels for Teens' RecommendationBronze Prize in the 2016 Independent Publishers Book Awards.Over one hundred years ago, the writer Lafcadio Hearn gathered and translated into English a selection of traditional Japanese ghost/mystery stories. They were published as Kwaidan: Stories and Studies of Strange Things. In this new graphic novel, acclaimed manga creator Sean Michael Wilson retells six of these stories. All of them are very well known in Japan, where ghosts and demons are often called yokai, meaning "the mysterious and weird." Today these stories find expression mostly in movies and manga, but they remain rooted in the traditional ghost stories of the Edo era known as kaidan, which means "recited narrative of strange, mysterious, rare, or bewitching apparitions."      The book includes an afterword by the author, Sean Michael Wilson, who puts the stories into historical and personal context.
