About this listen
We have selected for you six of the best Japanese myths and fairy tales. Not unlike the western folk tales compiled by the Brothers Grimm, these stories faithfully preserve the spirit of medieval Japan, while rendered in a translation accessible to all ages. Here is a wonderful collection of short stories:
- The Story of the Man who didn't wish to die;
- The Accomplished and Lucky Tea-Kettle;
- The Battle of the Monkey and the Crab;
- Momotaro or Little Peachling;
- Urashimataro and the Turtle;
- The Tongue-cut Sparrow.
These fairy tales and legends of old are a window into the Japanese imagination; it is a peculiar travel through space and time, which will delight children and adults alike.©2016 Compagnie du Savoir (P)2016 Compagnie du Savoir
