Book Synopsis Princess Kiku (Classic Reprint) by : M. F. Hutchinson
Download or read book Princess Kiku (Classic Reprint) written by M. F. Hutchinson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Princess Kiku Scene V. Room in Japanese house. Kiku's hallucination: "What I touch withers." Cecil and companion's interview with Kiku's ladies. Miss Prendergast's consternation. Scene VI. The Chrysanthemum Garden. Ito repents. Kiku supposed she had struck Ito blind. He confesses it was playacting. The story of the shipwreck. The heiress is found. The principal garment worn by Japanese ladies is the kimono. This outer garment or coat is made of silk, generally of a quiet color ornamented with Japanese designs; or, for general purposes, of figured calico, turkey red or orange cotton. The back has no seam and the front is open from top to bottom, sloping outward below the waist to show the underskirt; the neck is trimmed V shaped, or faced and turned over to form a collar, bringing to view a colored kerchief folded across the breast; the sleeves are loose and end in long, wide, rectangular-shaped bags, wide open from wrist down and lined. The underskirt, only visible in front, is of a different color and richly ornamented with gilt and bright Japanese designs. To complete the costume, a long, wide sash is passed twice around the waist and gathered behind into an immense butterfly bow and ends. The hair is arranged in pompadour style, and the back hair brought high up on the top of the head and ornamented with large, showy pins and little fans. The eyebrows should be penciled black. Two fine black lines, one above the upper and one below the lower eyelash, continued outward, curved slightly upward and meeting just beyond the outer corner of each eye, give quite a Japanese style to the face. The little "Moonbeam Fairies" should be costumed in similar style as to their garments, but of white or different light-colored material, the sleeves shorter and the sash smaller than in the ladies' costumes, and white stockings drawn over their shoes. Sahara's costume should be of sombre hues, the face made up for a wrinkled old hag. Lady Cecil is in well-fitting English travelling costume. Miss Prendergast, the same, but in accordance with her sixty years. Hair, silver-white. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Tatsu the Dragon written by Helen Van Aken and published by Tuttle Publishing. This book was released on 2015-10-13 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This multicultural children's book tells a mythical Japanese tale about dragons and adventure. Tatsu wasn't a real dragon. Jiro and Zenji made him for a festival parade, out of bamboo hoops and cloth. But as soon as he was finished, he began to feel like a real dragon, even though he didn't have any wings. When the magic balloon man blew him up so he could slither around, and gave him a tin horn for a voice, Tatsu thought it was time for him to go out and rescue a beautiful maiden in distress. That was how he met Kiku and the wicked Chief Executioner; and how, in the end, he got his wings. Young readers can follow Tatsu on his adventures all over Japan, from the Fire Festival on an island in the Inland Sea (where he was mistaken for a fire demon), to the top of an erupting volcano, in an exciting story set in the authentic Japan of feudal times.

She has escaped the confines of the palace at a great cost in lives, but her escape is paramount. Everywhere, Bhuttanian soldiers search for her, but she must elude capture and forced return to her dashing, but deceitful husband Dorak, Aga of the Bhuttanians. Maura truly loves Dorak. He was everything a woman could want––handsome, cultured, witty, and courageous. He lacks only kindness. Maura couldn’t dampen the raging ambition inside him. She knows that eventually Dorak would be as corrupt as his father, the Aga Zoar. When Dorak accuses her of sexual improprieties, Maura realizes that she has to flee by any means necessary to reunite with the Dinii, a warrior bird-like people, and search for the fabled plant, the Mother Bogazkoy, in order to “mate” with it. Only the Bogazkoy could infuse her with the power to combat the Black Cacodemon, Dorak’s evil wizard, and free her nation from the tyranny of Bhuttanian rule. Only by saving her country can Maura hope to save Dorak from himself. Can Maura really rescue both Dorak and her country? Or must one be sacrificed?

Both are grim state-of-the-nation novels based in East Asia, written by peripatetic authors. Both have lead characters who leave relatively comfortable lives in the United States of America to travel back to the troubled East and tragic pasts.” Paperback Pickings, The Telegraph
