Overview
Edith Sarra radically rethinks the Tale of Genji by focusing on the figure of the house--both the narrative's images of aristocratic mansions and its representation of their inhabitants. Unreal Houses opens new perspectives on the architectonics of the Genji and the feminine milieu that midwifed what has been called the world's first novel.
