Complete Musashi: The Book of Five Rings and Other Works: The Definitive Translations of the Complete Writings of Miyamoto Musashi--JapanÆs Greatest Samurai by Alexander Bennett, Miyamoto Musashi
informative
medium-paced
4.0
I downloaded this thinking it was Eiji Yoshikawa's novel Musashi. Well, it was actually a collection of all of the OG samurai's writings. You might like this if you're: a) a "japanophile" (weeb for adults) or b). study the blade instead of partying.
Holds up alright after 400 years, but if you're looking for an epic historical adventure or a biography of The Life and Times of The Samurai Guy you've got the wrong book.
Translated prose ends up weeeird.
