Story1
The Kappa is a creature from Japanese folklore known for dragging unwary toddlers to their deaths in rivers: a scaly, child-sized creature, looking something like a frog, but with a sharp, pointed beak and an oval-shaped saucer on top of its head, which hardens with age. Akutagawa’s Kappa is narrated by Patient No. 23, a madman in a lunatic asylum: he recounts how, while out hiking in Kamikochi, he spots a Kappa.

Story0
Una de las obras capitales del autor japonés Akutagawa Ryūnosuke, de la cual el director Akira Kurosawa tomó varios detalles a la hora de adaptar su película homónima, narra el encuentro de un sirviente humilde que acaba de ser despedido por su señor y una anciana pícara que roba el pelo de los cadáveres y vende carne de serpiente haciéndola pasar por pescado. El cuento, de final inesperado, supone una reflexión sobre los límites de la moral que sacudió a los lectores de la revista universitaria Teikoku Bungaku (Literatura imperial), donde fue publicada por primera vez.

Some people have basic needs of foods and materials that only theft can provide an answer for, and some others just pursue the taking of what they want, whenever they want and from whoever they want. These are their stories.

Story0
Akutagawas Meisterwerk "Im Dickicht" spielt im alten Japan. Der genaue Hergang eines Mords wird in acht vollkommen widersprüchlichen Zeugenaussagen vorgeführt. Die archaische Tragik des Geschehens spiegelt sich virtuos in der modernen Erzählweise. "Im Dickicht" war Vorlage für Akira Kurosawas berühmten Film "Rashomon". Das vorliegende Hörbuch präsentiert eine völlig neue Interpretation des Textes: in der Kombination von erzählender Stimme und Jazz-Schlagzeug entsteht diese absolut eigenständige Klangerzählung von packender Intensität.
