A page-turner by Japan's most popular writer of the immediate
post-war era! Set in Japan's turbulent 12th century, this
fast-paced novel recounts the titanic struggle between two leading
Japanese clans--the Heike and the Genji--as they seek to pacify a
fractured nation, ultimately turning on each other in their
unbridled lust for power. Written by the great Eiji Yoshikawa, this
classic work of fiction brings to life the wars, intrigues, feuds
and romances surrounding the most dramatic episode in Japanese
history. This new edition features a foreword and afterword by
historian Alexander Bennett, who explains the backdrop of the novel
and its importance as a towering work of modern fiction which sold
millions of copies in Japan. Combining raw narrative power,
pageantry and poetry, The Heike Story will enthrall readers
interested in the drama and spectacle of ancient Japan.
