Taking learners on an exciting cultural and linguistic journey, each story is followed by detailed translator's notes, Japanese vocabulary lists, and grammar points, along with a set of discussion questions and exercises.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe first two stories are very famous traditional Japanese folktales: Urashima Taro (Tale of a Fisherman) and Yuki Onna (The Snow Woman). These are followed by three short stories by notable 20th-century authors. The first of these short stories is Kumo no Ito (The Spider's Thread) by Akutagawa Ryunosuke; the second, Oborekaketa Kyodai (The Siblings Who Almost Drowned) by Arishima Takeo; and finally, Serohiki no Goshu (Gauche the Cellist) by Miyazawa Kenji.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eReading these stories in the original Japanese script — and hearing native speakers read them aloud in the accompanying free audio recording — helps students at every level deepen their comprehension of the beauty and subtlety of the Japanese language.
