More about the book
20 Japanese folk tales about a judge named Ooka; a real person who lived in Japan during the Edo Period (1615-1868). Although the country was very peaceful, the Shoguns of the Tokugawa family ruled with an iron hand. In this atmosphere of oppression and cruelty people found consolation in stories and fairy tales in which wisdom and justice always overcame evil and tyranny. They expressed the people's longing and hopes for a dignified life without fear, and that is whrer the stories aoubt Judge Ooka belong.
