About This Novel

This book contains 15 novels by Ryunosuke Akutagawa, including "Rashomon", "In the Bamboo Forest", "Hell Transformation" and "The Nose". "Rashomon" tells the story of a family of servants under Rashomon who are waiting for the rain to stop at dusk. When he was at a loss, as if his life and death were hanging in the balance, he met an old woman who made a living by pulling out the hair of dead people. The desperate domestic slave became evil and determined to abandon suffering and follow evil. He stripped off the old woman's clothes and escaped from Rashomon. The plot is simple, the characters are sparse, the short length, the small scenes, the time, place, characters, and the ending are all displayed in front of the reader. "Rashomon" uses a weather-proof layout to push people to the limit of life and death choices, thereby showing the inescapability of "evil" and conveying the author's understanding of people, their helplessness and despair.
