Description

Blurb:
In Edo period Japan, a strange new disease called the Redface Pox has begun to prey on the country’s men. Within eighty years of the first outbreak, the male population has fallen by seventy-five percent. Women have taken on all the roles traditionally granted to men, even that of the shogun. The men, precious providers of life, are carefully protected. And the most beautiful of the men are sent to serve in the shogun’s Inner Chamber...
Eine Krankheit hatte im feudalen Japan des frühen Tokugawa-Shogunats in kurzer Zeit fast die gesamte männliche Bevölkerung dahingerafft. In der Folge übernahmen die Frauen zwangsläufig die Aufgaben der Männer.

80 Jahre sind seither vergangen. Immer noch besteht die Bevölkerung zu 80% aus Frauen, die auch die politische Macht besitzen und mittlerweile ein Matriarchat etabliert haben – an der Spitze die Shogunin. Sie ist auch die einzige Frau, die sich einen Harem aus jungen Männern, den Oooku, leisten kann. Um Geld für die Mitgift seiner Schwester zu bekommen, tritt der aus einer armen Familie stammende Mizuno Yunoshin jetzt in diesen Harem ein.
Testo della bandella:
Giappone, periodo Edo. Un misterioso morbo decima la popolazione maschile. Gli uomini diventano una risorsa preziosa da proteggere in quanto “portatori di seme”. Tutte le cariche da loro occupate passano alle donne, trasformando in profondità l’assetto sociale del paese. Solo a colei che detiene l’autorità militare suprema, lo shogun, è concesso di accedere allo Ooku… le stanze interne al castello di Edo dove si mormora ci siano tremila uomini bellissimi. Luogo di passione e intrighi, desideri e frustrazioni, speranze e complotti.
