Re: A pair of bookends.

Thank you Steve, I missed those two, will try to locate them.

I think your comments on the women's roles is spot on, and in the Sea he perhaps had gone slightly too far in the other direction, but all that is understandable, and the characters he created in process were three-dimensional, inspite of some romantization that certainly too place.

Also, for a foreigner it is hard, if not impossible, to place that little world of that house in the right surrounding and time, so perhaps some investigation in Edo is in order. I checked - it lasted from 1600 through 1868 - when do you think the events take place? I thought the 18th century.
