Since then, "Genji" has been read and cherished for 1000 years by people of all social classes and backgrounds, and has transformed in various ways with the times. Paintings, crafts, Noh plays, modern Japanese translations, foreign language translations, comics... And now, on the eve of the 21st century, it has reappeared in a new form as an even more evolved bilingual comic. Yamato Waki's comic version of The Tale of Genji, "Asaki Yumemishi," is a "masterpiece" written after a thorough reading of the original text. In the comic, the splendid court society is visualized, making it easy to imagine the world of long ago. Moreover, the story focuses more on the "private" life of the characters, who suffer from the pain of love, conflicts with in-laws, and parent-child relationships, rather than their "public" life at court. The conversations that unfold there are solemn yet quite frank and candid. This bilingual comic could also serve as a practice book for English conversation. Incidentally, the scene in the "Wakamurasaki" chapter where Hikaru Genji meets Murasaki no Ue goes like this: "Inuki let the baby sparrow go. It had been kept in an upturned basket." (Original text) "Inuki let the baby sparrow go. It had been kept in an upturned basket." (Modern Japanese) I was keeping it under an upturned basket... Inuki let the baby sparrow go! (English translation) The Tale of Genji is popular abroad, so it's a valuable book for Japanese literature researchers around the world. (Hajimeko Matsumoto) The product photo is a sample.
