Notes on the Journey of Prince Takaoki

A postmodern fantasy novel. The center of the book is the true story of the Japanese prince Takaoki. Throughout seven chapters, the protagonist travels to exotic corners of the earth in search of enlightenment. Gradually, he begins to lose the... ability to distinguish between impressions and fantasies.
A multilayered text, full of irony, poetry, provocations, and references to folklore. The hero does not simply move through space — he embarks on a journey into the depths of himself.
The book will appeal to everyone interested in Japan, those who prefer intellectual literature in an Asian setting (not without reason has the author been called the Japanese Italo Calvino), and those who love complex literary forms.
