Glad to meet another Hearn reader. :) I have a few other books of his either on Amazon wishlist or purchased, which I hope to read. I think this is one of them. Hearn definitely is a good writer, and I enjoy his discoveries, just as you do. :)

Filled with visits to temples and shrines and insightful comments from a fresh but receptive eye. Haven’t read Kokoro yet, but it’s on my list!
