Reading Notes: The Romance of Old Japan part A

Reading Notes: The Romance of Old Japan part A

The Romance of Japan is a creation story told from the perspective of the different God's with a narrator filling in the blanks and describing the actions and scenes as they are happening. E. W. Champney and F. Champney do a marvelous job of making the mind see the creation of the world with each sentence that is said.
