About Dennis Washburn’s translation“Washburn’s version of Murasaki Shikibu’s masterpiece is lucid and engaging, irresistibly drawing the reader further and further into the story and the exquisite world it creates for us of Japan’s Heian court. A fresh and invaluable Tale of Genji for those of us reuniting with a familiar friend and those encountering it for the very first time. ”—VALERIE HENITIUK, author of Worlding Sei Shonagon: The Pillow Book in Translation
