SPIRITI E CREATURE DEL GIAPPONE

After the success of Ghost Stories of Japan, published by L’ippocampo in 2021, Benjamin Lacombe returns to lend his unmistakable style to the famous tales of Japanese tradition transcribed by Lafcadio Hearn and partly unpublished in Italy. The protagonist of the collection is the natural world, always revered and surrounded by an aura of mystery in the Land of the Rising Sun. Story after story, we traverse different environments, from the depths of the sea to the underground world, then emerge on the surface and finally reach the sky. In this sumptuously illustrated volume, cunning, fascinating, and monstrous characters keep the reader breathless until the end.
