Sumérgete en el fascinante mundo de la corte imperial japonesa del siglo XI con 'The Tale of Murasaki'. A través de los ojos de Murasaki, una joven observadora, se despliega un exótico tapiz de intrigas políticas y sexuales, el poder masculino y la manipulación femenina. Mientras escribe 'The Tale of Genji', la obra maestra de la literatura japonesa, Murasaki registra un lugar notable lleno de tradiciones ancestrales y misterios populares. Descubre este mundo de belleza y poesía, donde cada detalle cuenta una historia.
Liza Crihfield Dalby is an American anthropologist and novelist specializing in Japanese culture. For her graduate studies, Dalby studied and performed fieldwork in Japan of the geisha community of Ponto-chō, which she wrote about in her Ph.D. dissertation, entitled The institution of the geisha in modern Japanese society. Since that time, she has written five books. Her first book, Geisha, was based on her early research. The next book, Kimono: Fashioning Culture is about traditional Japanese clothing and the history of the kimono. This was followed with a fictional account of the Heian era noblewoman Murasaki Shikibu, titled The Tale of Murasaki. In 2007 she wrote a memoir, East Wind Melts the Ice, which was followed two years later by a second work of fiction, Hidden Buddhas.
