In this cahier Paul Griffiths effects a multi-layered translation,
taking a series of eleven Japanese noh plays and turning them into
stories in English. The reader will encounter spirit-beings set
free, lovers lost and found, dreams and desires fulfilled, lessons
learned from nature, and always a longing for the infinite, as the
long, slow drama of each noh play is transformed into a short and
moving tale. Interspersed and contrasting with the stories are ten
photographs of contemporary Japan by John L. Tran which further
explore the relation between theatricality and narrative, while
offering hints of a very different vision of infinitude.
