Amaia Arrazola returns to Japan to reveal everything there is to know about the most attractive creatures and legends in the country of fashion.
I have discovered that, in Japanese tradition, the starry sky is linked to the passage of time, festivities, ephemeral beauty and the spiritual connection with the universe. In this book I explore legends that address the origin of the world, love, fear and our relationship with nature. I have compiled the stories that most captivated me about kamis, onis, yokais and kitsunes, beings that unite the human with the divine. I hope you too will discover the fascinating charm of the legends of Japan.
