The book was a fast and enjoyable read. The range of stories was diverse and I feel illuminated many sides of Japanese culture that have developed since the book was first written - in terms of Junji Ito's stories for instance, you can draw parallels from these classic Japanese tales to the modern day. Great stuff.
