«Yoshiwara o el mundo flotante» is the historical novel by Hans-Christian Kirsch, published by Ediciones B in paperback (368 pages, in Spanish).
In seventeenth-century Japan, the Tokugawa shogunate ends the feudal wars and imposes rigid control over civil life. A story of forbidden love takes its protagonists to Yoshiwara, the pleasure district of Edo, where the splendour of the arts, classical legends and the political and commercial tensions of the period intersect.
Translation by Lucio Bosch of the German original «Yoshiwara, oder, Die schwankende Welt», originally published in 1997.
For readers of historical fiction and tales of forbidden love, with an interest in classical Japan, the Edo period and ukiyo-e culture.
