Okamoto Kidō: Master of the Uncanny translated by Nancy H. Ross

Paperback – Kurodahan Press – 2020 – 168 pages

While many of Kidō’s stories are retellings of tales from China and other nations, he also drew on a diverse range of traditions, including the heritage of Edo-era storytellers such as Ueda Akinari and Asai Ryōi, to produce a dazzling array of work covering the entire spectrum from time-honored ghost tropes to modern horror.
