[日販商品データベースより]

The Life of an Amorous Man is a groundbreaking work by Ihara Saikaku, Japan’s first popular novelist. This new unabridged English translation of Saikaku’s seminal work includes the 54 illustrations drawn by the author and published in the original Japanese edition.

The story follows Yonosuke, a passionate man whose never-ending quest for pleasure leads him from the glitzy brothels of Edo (modern-day Tokyo) and the elegant boudoirs of Kyoto to moonlit trysts along quiet lanes in the Japanese countryside. Along the way he weaves a tapestry of fleeting affairs, forbidden romances, and broken hearts.

Brimming with scandalous encounters, witty anecdotes, and poignant reflections, Yonosuke’s tale provides a candid glimpse into the hedonistic world of Edo-period Japan (1680-1770), where courtesans, gamblers, and pleasure-seekers mingle in a whirlwind of indulgence. The Life of an Amorous Man was a huge success in its day and remains a celebration of life and a fascinating glimpse of a vibrant, bygone era.
