A review by idleramblings
The Pillow Book of SEI Shonagon by Arthur Waley, Sei Shōnagon

2.5

The rating is for this edition; it was a weird translation, with a lot of added parts by Waley and comparisons to Western literature/culture that felt reductive, when I just wanted to read what Sei Shonagon actually wrote. However, Sei's words are interesting. Just makes me wonder how much I missed by reading the edition I could find first.
