Om denne bog
A thrilling romantic historical adventure, set in medieval Japan, tinged with fantasy and revolving around the art of waka poetry_______'A charming, magical, picaresque journey through medieval Japan', Sean Lusk, author of The Second Sight of Zachary Cloudesley ______ Matsuo is expected to be a samurai, like his father before him. But as he is training in the art of war, he realises he was destined for a different art altogether. Turning his back on his future as a warrior of the sword, he decides instead to do battle with words, as a poet. Thus begins a story of intrigue and adventure, passion and betrayal. Matsuo's quest to find his true self, and his true love, takes him across medieval Japan, through bloody battlefields and burning cities. But his ultimate test will be the uta awase - a tournament where Japan's greatest poets engage in fierce verbal combat for the honour of victory, and where Matsuo will find himself fighting for his life.
