In Search of Lafcadio Hearn 

Great short film, thank you for sharing

Great vid. I showed it to my university students in Kobe, as we were talking about Hearn.

Superb. Much harder to create a good short film than a long one. Thank you so much.

A fantastic and often overlooked connection between Japan and Ireland. One of my favourite authors. Go raibh mile!

Lafcadio Hearn, the most interesting man …

Very well made video, Tony. Good idea to show his old haunts in Japan. I hadn't realised he formally adopted Buddhism. A fascinating figure.

I didn't realize Hearn was so connected to Ireland. I knew of him as a child of Greek and British parents. Nice to understand more about his life. I think Glimpses of An Unfamiliar Japan has some of the best descriptive writing in literature. Reading this book made me sense his deep passion for the Japanese and the Japanese culture.

I really enjoyed this video and the accompanying music matched it beautifully. Thank you for making it! What is the origin of the artists of this music? It sounds like it has a combination of Irish and Japanese influence.

Thanks for this. Great vid. Discovered Hearn a year ago. I wish he wrote even more on Japan and other places.

The first weaboo, lol
