Mermaid Meat the Secret to Immortality (Book and CD)

This beautiful gift book features a purple embossed silk cover surrounding an inlay of an exquisite woodblock print of a geisha. Inside, the thick cream paper and vintage fonts were inspired by the storybooks of old published around the turn of the last century in the Japonais style celebrating the exotic East.

The book features traditional Japanese ghost stories illustrated with full color plates by Yoshitoshi, a woodblock artist famous for his portraits of women and ghosts. This anthology of time-honored favorites are recorded on the accompanying CD by San Francisco writer/recording artist Brenda Wong Aoki, one of the foremost storytellers in the country.

Hardbound: 77 pp.
