Synopsis
A new collection of stories from submissions and classic literature offering the best and most incredible ghost stories from across the whole of Asia, combining new and classic authors across the entire region., A new collection of stories from submissions and classic literature offering the best and most incredible ghost stories from across the whole of Asia, combining new and classic authors across the entire region. Another deluxe edition of new writing and neglected perspectives. Asian ghosts - from India to Sri Lanka, China to Korea, Japan to the Philippines - can be both terrifying and comforting. Underpinned by strong cultural beliefs in the cycles of life and ancestor worship, the nature of Asian spirits differs from that of their counterparts in other areas of the world. The possibility is more instinctually accepted that ghosts remain with us, as part of the world, whether we can see them or not. Featured here are all kinds of stories from across the region: classic weird tales by the likes of Pu Songling, Rabindranath Tagore, S Mukerji, Im Bang and Yi Ruk, Lafcadio Hearn and Yei Theodora Ozaki, are complemented by stories by Asian writers of today. An egui (the Chinese version of a 'hungry ghost') is exorcised, a vicious jiangshi (Chinese zombie-like revenant) is encountered in the night, a Bengali shakchunni (the ghost of an unsatisfied bride) poignantly seeks love with devastating effect, a family is haunted by vengeful Korean gwishin, and the iconic Japanese tragedies of Oiwa and O-Kiku are revisited. The Flame Tree Gothic Fantasy, Classic Stories and Epic Tales collections bring together the entire range of myth, folklore and modern short fiction. Highlighting the roots of suspense, supernatural, science fiction and mystery stories, the books in Flame Tree Collections series are beautifully presented, perfect as a gift and offer a lifetime of reading pleasure., Another deluxe edition of new writing and neglected perspectives.

- p***p (69)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseOne of the best e-Bay buying experiences I've ever had. The item was exactly as described, and exactly what I wanted. (The price was so good, I was momentarily concerned that perhaps I was getting a smaller version of the deck I ordered, but no, it was exactly what I wanted. And the item was well-packed! We've had lots of rain in our area lately, and some other shipments from places like A***** had gotten damaged when they were left on my porch. Not this one!
