Interesting Japanese Stories

I came across this site:

http://www.kcc.zaq.ne.jp/dfeea307/

There are about 15 short stories that someone has translated and made into a very nice webpage. The stories have nice traditional music playing that you can switch on/off as you so desire. The stories are all different... and they are very interesting... some are good and creepy... some are revenge... and some are love... a good mix... I have read them all now... I haven't decided which is my fav though.

I just got done reading the 'The Chamomile Grave' by Ito Sachio. I could not stop the tears flowing down my cheeks... it was that sad a story... it is the longest of all of them... you have to click the continued link three times to get to the ending... I would like to know if anyone else thinks this is a particularly sad story of unrequited love or if I'm just being silly... I must have used 10 kleenex before I got myself under control...

Hey, thankyou for this link! I can't read now, because... well, because I'm sick and sitting in the freezing cold - but sure I will read them at some point!

I just read "The Third Dream" . . . wow! Spooky and sad!

Such an awesome site you found! How did you come across it?!:?
