#Japan­ese Folk Sto­ries — My Lord Bag of Rice

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.
Thank you so much for lis­ten­ing the #pod­cast mates! And a big thank you to all of you love­ly con­trib­u­tors.
Send me your own sto­ries and rec­om­men­da­tions because you’re awe­some:
