Publisher's Synopsis
Out Of The East: Reveries And Studies In New Japan (1895) is a book written by Lafcadio Hearn, an Irish-Greek writer who lived in Japan for many years and became deeply immersed in Japanese culture. The book is a collection of essays and reflections on various aspects of Japanese life and society, including religion, art, literature, and folklore. Hearn's writing is characterized by his deep appreciation and understanding of Japanese culture, as well as his ability to convey its beauty and complexity to a Western audience.
