Inspired by the classic tale of the prince and the pauper, Daughters of Nijo: A Romance of Japan by Onoto Watanna features a sweet and amusing narrative in which two sisters trade places and lovers. Sado-ko was raised to be a princess. Massago was raised as a lowly country maid. Though raised in separate classes and homes, fate conspires to bring Massago and Sado-ko together again. With poor living conditions and an unfair workload, Massago is unhappy as a country maid. Meanwhile, at the palace, Sado-ko spends most of her time in solitude, feeling solemn about her future as Prince Komatzu’s wife. The other court ladies disprove of her, judging Sado-ko for not succumbing to Western influences like they have. After the palace commissions Massago's fiancé, Junzo, to create a sculpture, the two sisters reunite and decide to trade places. In their new lives, Sado-ko and Massago find happiness at last, but when Aoi, a lady of the court, starts to cause trouble, she threatens to ruin the twin sisters' plans. Published in 1904, Daughters of Nijo: A Romance of Japan by Onoto Watanna is now presented in an easy-to-read font and features a stunning new cover design. With these accommodations, Daughters of Nijo: A Romance of Japan is restored to modern standards while preserving the original and precious mastery of Onoto Watanna’s work. Add this beautiful edition to your bookshelf, or enjoy the digital edition on any e-book device.
