Intriguing. Gripping. Seductive. The magic continues in the second novel of the bestselling Tales of the Otori trilogy. Grass for His Pillow returns us to a mythical, medieval Japan, in a story of clashing powers, divided loyalties, and forbidden love played out against a dazzling landscape. Picking up where Across the Nightingale Floor left off, we return to the land of harsh beauty and deceptive appearances. Where we first met Takeo the young orphan taken up by the Otori Lord and now a closely held member of the Tribe and his beloved Kaede, heir to the Maruyama and alone in the world, who must find a way to unify the domain she has inherited. In a complex social hierarchy, amid dissembling clans and fractured allegiances, there is no place for passionate young love. Yet Takeo and Kaede, drawing on their unusual talents and hidden strengths, must make their way in this tale of longing, ambition, and intrigue. Grass for His Pillow is the tantalizing next instalment in a brilliantly imaginative and critically acclaimed series.

Lian Hearn studied modern languages at Oxford University and worked as a film critic and arts editor in London before settling in Australia. A lifelong interest in Japan led to the study of the Japanese language and many trips to Japan. This fascination culminated in Lian writing Across the Nightingale Floor which was the first in the internationally acclaimed Tales of the Otori series. Grass for His Pillow, Brilliance of the Moon, and The Harsh Cry of the Heron follow. This remarkable series has sold into 36 territories and has sales of two million copies. Film rights have been sold to Universal Studios for Kennedy Marshall. The latest book in the series, the prequel Heaven s Net is Wide, was published in 2007 to great acclaim.
