Sugawara and the Secrets of Calligraphy [Japanese]

By Shion Miura

Sugawara no Michizane, known as the god of learning, influences three siblings: Umeomaru, Matsuomaru, and Sakuramaru, who struggle with loyalty to their lords. The story explores calligraphy mastery, family love and hate, and a tragic temple school incident, reflecting social contradictions. A human classic drama, often performed in Kabuki and Bunraku, is vividly translated.
