Hi, thank you for stopping by my blog. For that storyline, you may try Haruki Murakami’s South of the Border, West of the Sun translated in English. I’m not sure it’s traditional love, but the man is really, really in love with the woman, but… When I first read it, I was too young to get it, though. じゃあね。

I read the book “Bando de pardais”, which tells about genji and other fictional characters. If you liked Musashi, you’ll love this one. It seems that many people thinks that he was an arrogant playboy, but I’m to young to remember those times.

You can try to find “The Pillow Book”, a book written with only kana. This is said to be written a long time ago by a girl/woman as a diary, and kept in her pillow box.

Actually, please let me know if you get it :o).
