The Penguin Book of Japanese Short Stories

June 2018

A defining collection of short stories from 19th, 20th and 21st century Japan. I’ve long loved the work of artist Hiroyuki Izutsu – and this painting in particular – and was delighted to use it on the cover.

The jacket is printed CMYK plus two Pantones on Colorplan Bright White stock.
