OVERVIEW This is an authentic Chojimimusoushi Book from Japan. This book is a comprehensive collection of folktales and legends from Tono, a mountainous region in Iwate Prefecture long known for its vibrant trading activity and rich cultural heritage. Narrated originally by Yoshiyoshi Sasaki, who shared these stories with ethnologist Kunio Yanagita, it played a seminal role in the birth of Japanese folklore studies. The stories are a fascinating blend of mysterious, amusing, imaginative, and sometimes eerie narratives that evoke the spirit of ancient Japan. This compilation is recognized as a treasured anthology reflecting the cultural heartland of the Japanese people.
