We are pleased to announce that Masako’s Story by Kikuko Otake will be part of the Hiroshima Atomic Bomb Museum’s push for a future free of nuclear weapons to be held in every state of the United States this year. Jesse

From time to time I like to put up a map of where we’re heading at Ahadada Books. Dan Sendecki is almost finished with the corrections for Yoko Danno’s Kojiki. The Kojiki promises to be one of our best, both in content and in design. After he finishes that, then e-chaps by Judith Skillman and Bruce Slater will be going up. We’re also happy to announce that Alison Croggon has given us a manuscript for an e-chap.

This August we hope to finish a double book by Elizabeth Smither/ Robert Lax. We also have a wonderful new translation of Lu You “The Old Man Who Does What He pleases” by Burton Watson to finish this August. Later this year we’ll have the official Occidental release of Lou Rowan’s remarkable Sweet Potatoes. After that we have a double novelette by Michael Heller in the works.

And those are just a few of the goodies. Jesse
