Oh that is so lovely. I don't usually go for paler colors, prefering gem tones. But the subtlety of these shades is wonderful.

Sublime!! Thank you so much🙏⭐⭐

All those lovely layers! They must be extremely thin fabrics. Tale of Genji was part of my high school's World Literature course. The teacher was wise and avoided most European lit in favor of other cultures and countries.

Each kimono in that layering is lined I think I counter 10-12 layers. So 20-24 layers of gossamer silk.

I am sorry, but the two voices overlaying each other, was not a good idea!

私もそう思います。インタビューパートは字幕だけで充分だった。

I love that the world's first novel was written by a woman. I wonder if it's available as an audiobook?
