    The Makioka Sisters: A Bilingual Excerpt for Reading Practice (Reajer Selections: Bilingual Japanese Reading Practice Book 3)

    About

    Practice your Japanese reading with this short bilingual selection from The Makioka Sisters,
    the famous novel by Tanizaki Junichiro (谷崎潤一郎). The original title is Light Snow (細雪, sasame yuki), which resonates with the name of one of the main characters, Yukiko.

    The selection contains the novel's atmospheric opening paragraphs, in which three of the sisters are getting ready to leave the house. The text begins with a long, winding sentence that would be quite disorientating to read unaided - but thanks to the help provided by this ebook, even this advanced selection becomes completely accessible to any learner.

    This guided reader features:

    (1) An introduction with information and tips for effective study with the ebook.
    (2) The original Japanese selection text, broken down into individual sentences.
    (3) Readings in hiragana for all the kanji characters.
    (4) An accurate sentence-by-sentence English translation.
    (5) Detailed language notes explaining difficult grammar and vocabulary.

    Check out the book's Look Inside preview to see how all this works in practice. A free full-featured PDF sample is available on the Reajer website.
