| Summary | "The Matsuyama Mirror" by Mrs. T. H. James and Eitaku is a fairy tale intended for children, likely written in the early 20th century. This enchanting story centers on themes of love and memory as it explores the bond between a mother, her daughter, and the magic of a mirror that reflects the essence of their relationship. The tale begins with a loving couple in a quiet village in Matsuyama, raising their cherished daughter. When the mother becomes ill, she gives her daughter a mirror with the dying wish that she look into it to keep their connection alive. The daughter faithfully follows her mother’s request, believing she sees her mother’s spirit in the reflection, which matures as she grows into adulthood. Unbeknownst to her, the image she sees is shaped by her own kindness and love, mirroring the beauty of her late mother. The story beautifully illustrates the power of love and memory, showing how a simple object can serve as a symbol of enduring affection and remembrance.
