The Little God Ebisu is a novel written by Beulah Marie Dix and published in 1914. The story is set in Japan and revolves around a young girl named O'Yon����� who is devoted to the god Ebisu. O'Yon����� is an orphan who lives with her uncle, a fisherman, and his family. She spends her days fishing and praying to Ebisu, the god of fisherman and luck. One day, O'Yon����� meets a young American man named Robert San, who is studying Japanese culture. Robert is immediately drawn to O'Yon�����'s kind and gentle nature, and the two become friends. However, their friendship is met with disapproval from O'Yon�����'s uncle, who believes that Robert is trying to take advantage of her. As O'Yon����� and Robert's relationship deepens, they face many challenges, including cultural differences and the disapproval of those around them. Despite these obstacles, they remain devoted to each other and to their respective beliefs. The Little God Ebisu is a touching love story that explores themes of faith, cultural differences, and the power of love. It offers a glimpse into Japanese culture and tradition, and is a testament to the enduring nature of love and devotion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
