Full description for Tale of Genji
Written centuries before the time of Shakespeare and Chaucer, "The Tale of Genji" marks the birth of the novel -- and after more than a millennium, this seminal work about the life and loves of Prince Genji, master poet, dancer, musician and painter, continues to enchant readers throughout the world. This version by Kencho Suematsu was the first-ever translation in English. Condensed, it's a quarter length of the unabridged text. Perfect for readers with limited time.
