Summary
Four things that were told once, late, by someone who swore they'd never repeat them. A blind musician is led out every night to play his biwa for an audience that stopped breathing centuries ago. A traveler meets a woman alone on the road with nothing where her face should be — and then meets her again. Hermits sleep peacefully in their hut by day; after dark, their heads leave their bodies and go hunting. And a woodcutter's apprentice is spared by a woman made of snow, on one condition he is not built to keep. Collected door-to-door in Meiji-era Japan and first published in 1904 by a writer who spent his life gathering these stories before they were lost — reprinted here chapter by chapter, public domain in the United States, house account Enishio Classics.
