Kumo no Ito & Toshisun - El hilo de la araña & Toshishun - Edición con furigana

Kumo no Ito & Toshishun – Akutagawa Ryūnosuke (くもの糸・杜子春 芥川龍之介短編集) is an anthology of short stories by Ryūnosuke Akutagawa including «The Spider's Thread» and «Toshishun».

It gathers eleven celebrated Akutagawa stories, among them «The Spider's Thread» —the tale of the thief Kandata and the thread the Buddha lowers to him from paradise— and «Toshishun». This edition of the Aoi Tori Bunko children's imprint adds illustrations by Yoshiyuki Momose, a Studio Ghibli animator.

Recommended level: Intermediate (JLPT N3–N2). It is classic literature, but this edition carries furigana on every kanji and illustrations, which makes it more approachable.

Original Japanese version, with furigana.
