Welcome my folk story lovers!
I have you an old 1908 Japanese Folk Story episode — letters compiled by one friend of author Yei Theodora Ozaki into a compilation of traditional Japanese folk tales. I have for your the tale of “My Lord Bag of Rice” that has been translated multiple times since 1908, and there are many more stories to come — if you lovely listeners are interested. I’ll do my best to bring these stories to live, and take note of how different the stories are back then, their structure, and their use of language — just fascinating.
