Onna Tachi San Hyaku Nin No Uragiri No Sho (Shincho Bunko)

[Machine Translation] Let us tell the story of the original Uji 10 chapters of the Tale of Genji to future generations. It has been more than a hundred years since The Tale of Genji spread throughout the world. In order to correct the falsified version of the tale, Murasaki Shikibu returns to life as a ghost and recounts the true story of the Ten Books of Uji. The tale that is eventually published begins to move the times with people's agendas, and develops into a spectacular betrayal between the women. The story of Genji, which won both the Yomiuri Literary Award and the Noma Literary New Writers Award, is a whirlwind of lies and lust, a completely new Tale of Genji.
