The second book in the Tales of the Otori trilogy continues the epic story of Otori Takeo and Shirakawa Kaede, the young lovers whose fate is played out in an ancient Oriental world, where ritualised codes of high honour counter the cruelty of savage blood-feuds. Takeo has pledged his life to the Tribe, a secret clan of spies and assassins who claim his legendary supernatural skills for their own ruthless purposes, in doing so he must deny his birthright as an Otori lord - and his love for Kaede. If he does not serve them, the Tribe will kill him. Kaede, separated from Takeo, must use her intelligence, beauty and cunning to assert her place in a world of all-powerful men - who must never know that she is carrying Takeo's child. In growing from boy to man, Takeo must make a choice - and the dangerous path he undertakes is a journey of high adventure, treachery and passion that establishes this extraordinary trilogy as one of the most brilliant and enduring works of modern fiction. GRASS FOR HIS PILLOW, the sequel to ACROSS THE NIGHTINGALE FLOOR, shortlisted for the Carnegie Medal, is one of the most eagerly-awaited novels of 2003. Lian Hearn has created a brilliantly imagined culture. Here is epic storytelling whose appeal crosses genres, genders and generations.

Takeo, dedič klanu Otoriovcov, obetoval svoj život tajnému kmeňu Kikutov. Nadprirodzené schopnosti – mimoriadne ostrý sluch, schopnosť byť naraz na dvoch miestach a umenie stať sa neviditeľným – z neho spravili najobávanejšieho nájomného vraha. Musí však zaprieť všetky duchovné sľuby svojho pokojného detstva, právo prvorodeného na majetok, pozemky a moc – a najmä lásku ku Kaede. Ak nesplní kruté požiadavky kmeňa, jeho príslušníci ho zabijú. Z Takea vyrastie muž, odhodlaný vybrať sa na cestu nebezpečenstva, utrpenia a obetí v krutej horskej zime. Kaede, ktorú bezohľadne využívajú krutí mocipáni, musí využiť svoj um, krásu a ľstivosť, aby sa presadila vo svete ovládanom mocnými mužmi. Vankúš z trávy, druhá časť svetového bestselleru Príbehov klanu Otoriovcov, nás zavedie do mýtického stredovekého Japonska, a vyrozpráva nám príbeh odohrávajúci sa v očarujúcom prostredí, ktorý je plný bojov o moc, protichodných vzťahov a vášnivej lásky.
