A fascinating programme about Lafcadio Hearn's love of insects and the Japanese vocabulary related to them. My family and I were lucky enough to guided around the wonderful "The Poetry of Insects" exhibition at the Lafcadio Memorial Museum in Matsue by Bon Koizumi, great-grandson of Lafcadio Hearn, and his wife Shoko when we visited Matsue last year.
