The Tale of Genji

Finished

源氏物語

Hikaru Genji, the illegitimate son of the Emperor during Japan's Heian period, is stripped of his princely status and made a commoner. He serves as a government official, living a life of opulence within the imperial court, dedicated to the refined arts, poetry, and romantic pursuits.

His existence is defined by a series of intricate and often scandalous love affairs with various women. However, the complexity of his personal entanglements and the strict social codes of the era threaten to unravel the carefully maintained facade of his luxurious life.
