DOWN the Inland Sea between Umedaichi and Kure (now a great naval port) and in the province of Aki, there is a small village called Yaiyama, in which lived a painter of some note whose name was Abe Tenko. Tenko had had a sister who went into the service of the Lord of Aki, by whom she had a daughter, whose name was Kimi. Had the child been a son, it would have been adopted into the Aki family; but, being a daughter, it was, according to Japanese custom, sent back to its mother's family, with the result that Tenko took charge of the child. The mother being dead, the child had lived with him for sixteen years. Our story opens with O Kimi grown into a pretty girl. To supplement his meagre income he taught aspiring artists who took daily lessons from him. One of his most promising pupils was Sawara Kameju. After the arrival of the young student O Kimi's heart gave her much trouble.

Mosaku and his apprentice Minokichi journeyed to a forest, some little distance from their village. They desired to cross this river, but the ferryman had gone away, leaving his boat on the other side of the water. As it was too cold to consider swimming across the river they were glad to take shelter in the ferryman's little hut. On entering, one fell into a slumber while the other lay awake listening to the wind howling through the trees. All of a sudden the door was blown open, and a fair woman, in dazzlingly white garments, stood in the hut. For a moment she stood thus; then she bent over Mosaku, her breath coming forth like white smoke. After bending thus over the old man for a minute or two she turned to Minokichi and hovered over him.

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “A fascinating look at how consumers perceive logos, ads, commercials, brands, and products.”—Time How much do we know about why we buy? What truly influences our decisions in today’s message-cluttered world? In Buyology, Martin Lindstrom presents the astonishing findings from his groundbreaking three-year, seven-million-dollar neuromarketing study—a cutting-edge experiment that peered inside the brains of 2,000 volunteers from all around the world as they encountered various ads, logos, commercials, brands, and products. His startling results shatter much of what we have long believed about what captures our interest—and drives us to buy. Among the questions he explores: • Does sex actually sell? • Does subliminal advertising still surround us? • Can “cool” brands trigger our mating instincts? • Can our other senses—smell, touch, and sound—be aroused when we see a product? Buyology is a fascinating and shocking journey into the mind of today's consumer that will captivate anyone who's been seduced—or turned off—by marketers' relentless attempts to win our loyalty, our money, and our minds.
