Question
This novel was dismissed as “tedious” in an 1877 book by Georges Bousquet that apparently confused it with a later work. The authorship of a chapter in this novel is questioned due to it addressing the reader directly to explain a story about two sisters playing a board game while being spied upon by the Chamberlain Lieutenant. The title of this novel’s final chapter is rendered as “The Floating Bridge of Dreams” in a 1976 translation by Edward (*) Seidensticker. This novel’s protagonist’s grand-nephew and grandson feud over the daughters of an Imperial Prince in its concluding ten chapters. The death of this novel’s protagonist is depicted in the blank chapter “Vanished into the Clouds.” For 10 points, the title “Shining Prince” is the subject of what 11th century classical Japanese novel by Lady Murasaki? ■END■
