From the rear cover
""Figures of Resistance" is not simply the best English-language study of Heian prose texts now available, but also one of the two or three most important studies of Japanese literature ever written. It will become not so much the 'standard' . . . as the critical point of departure in the field of Japanese narrative studies for years to come." --Edward Fowler, University of California, Irvine
