An abridged edition of the world's first novel, in a translation that is "likely to be the definitive edition . . . for many years to come" (The Wall Street Journal)A Penguin Classic
Written in the eleventh century, this exquisite portrait of courtly life in medieval Japan is widely celebrated as the world's first novel--and is certainly one of its finest. Genji, the Shining Prince, is the son of an emperor. He is a passionate character whose tempestuous nature, family circumstances, love affairs, alliances, and shifting political fortunes form the core of this magnificent epic. Royall Tyler's superior translation is detailed, poetic, and superbly true to the Japanese original while allowing the modern reader to appreciate it as a contemporary treasure. In this deftly abridged edition, Tyler focuses on the early chapters, which vividly evoke Genji as a young man and leave him at his first moment of triumph. This edition also includes detailed notes, glossaries, character lists, and chronologies.

Comfortable but Runs Small
I got the wirarpa Men’s Cotton T-Shirt 2-pack in XX-Large (Black/Gray) and while the shirts are really soft and breathable, they do run small. The XX-Large feels a bit tighter than expected, especially after washing. The cotton material is great and comfortable, but I would recommend sizing up if you’re looking for a more relaxed fit.
The classic crew neck design is versatile, and the shirts are well-made. They hold up well in the wash and maintain their softness. Even though the sizing is a bit off, the quality and price are still excellent for the value.
If you’re okay with a slightly snug fit or decide to size up, this is still a great purchase!

Not a great fit
Size: Medium, Color: White
Though it's the right size, it's not a good fit - cut is awkward
