This volume delves into the life of the renowned writer and cultural critic Lafcadio Hearn, emphasizing his complex background and early experiences that shaped his literary career. The book not only provides a detailed narrative of Hearn's life but also includes many of his letters, which serve to vividly illustrate his character and the emotional depth of his artistic exploration. The opening of this volume introduces Lafcadio Hearn's early years, detailing his birth in the Greek Ionian Islands and the tumultuous events that marked his childhood, including his parents’ dramatic romance and subsequent separation. Bisland explores Hearn's formative experiences, portraying him as a sensitive and introspective child who was heavily influenced by his dual heritage and early losses.
