First assembled from scattered oral poems in the early 14th century, 'The Tale of the Heike' is as familiar a touchstone to the Japanese as the Bible or the Arthurian legends in the West. Royall Tyler's masterful new translation recreates the work in its full operatic form, with speech, poetry, blank verse and song.
