Snakes' Legs: Sequels, Continuations, Rewritings, and Chinese Fiction
This is an accessible, clarifying guide that helped me appreciate Murasaki's hefty and often frustrating novel. At times, his critical sources seemed to better apply to modern western works. However, for the most part he offers clear and helpful historical, religious, and critical background. His discussion of how Mursaki interweaves and varies the themes that run through the book and his explanation of Buddhist beliefs were especially useful.
