That's a lovely story, but I've never encountered her version of the Japanese folktale before. I'm wondering if there really is an alternate version out there, or if she's misremembering or read her own situation into it, or just twisted it to suit her narrative. The version I'm familiar with is quite sad and beautiful in its own way. [1]

- rossdavidh 4y agoThere seems to be a lot of versions, I suppose that she is not the first to read her (or his) own situation into the story and change it accordingly.
