Originally published in Tokyo in 1903, Hanakatsura (literally Ògarland of flowersÓ) features a biographical sketch of the activist and author Kishida Toshiko (Baroness Nakajima) plus four short stories by Japanese women writers of the Meiji era:
Akebonozome: A Cloth Dyed in Rainbow Colors, by Kaho Miyake
_tsugomori: The Last Day of the Year, by Ichiyo Higuchi
Onisenbiki: The Thousand Devils, by Usurai Kitada (Mrs. Kajita)
Shinobine, by Otsuka Kusuo
Compiled and translated by Tei Fujiu, four memorable and affecting stories depict women experiencing the frustrations of traditional family roles within an emergent commercial society at the turn of the century. The men seem preoccupied with buying and selling votes, fighting foreign wars, ignoring their families, or going out on the town; and they are fully capable of rejecting a bride for her looks or just letting a new wife walk away. Meanwhile, young female characters cope with overall shabbiness, lost samurai dignity, orphanhood, servitude, poverty, indebtedness, jealous sisters, stepmothers, and mothers-in-law, and the combined challenges of being blind, ugly, alone, and empathetic.

Nice suit great value
Size: Medium, Color: Light Blue, Size: Medium, Color: Light Blue
Got this suit for my son to wear to a wedding. It arrived a day or two then the except it delivery. I was concerned if it would fit because of the size chart. He is tall and skinny so I got the medium. When he tried it on it fit him perfectly except the waist was a tad too big but with a belt everything worked. I took it to the cleaned to have them press it. Great value, nice quality material, light weight and comfortable for spring/summer events. The wedding was outdoors. He looked very handsome unit. Was very pleased.

Not Seersucker, more a Blue pinstriped suit.
Size: XX-Large, Color: Blue
This is not Seersucker!! Granted the suit will be cool in summer and looks good, but material is a blend. The pants are very large, while the top fits perfectly. I’d go with a regular cut, not slim for better fit. But for the price, no complaints.

Great Suit for Hard to Fit Guys
Size: X-Large, Color: Light Grey, Size: X-Large, Color: Light Grey
This fit my husband perfectly. The elastic in the waistband is great, he was very comfortable all day. The only complaint is that the material is a little thin.
