	SUSANOO : The deity from Japanese Mythology
		SUSANOO was then thrown out of heaven and mooched about earth rather at a loss until he met an old couple weeping copiously.
		When SUSANOO saw the daughter he realized what was missing in his life, and said 'Give your daughter to me — I'll look after her don't you worry — now tell me about this dragon and have you got any booze?'.
		SUSANOO changed the girl into a comb, as he still retained some godly powers, and stuck her into his hair to keep her out of harm's way and then filled eight bowls with rice wine inside a palisade he built which had eight holes in it.

	Encyclopedia of Shinto - Home : Kami in Classic Texts : Susanoo
		In Nihongi, however, Susanoo is described as being produced by Izanagi and Izanami as part of the process of their giving birth to various kami (kamiumi).
		Susanoo was ordered by Izanagi to have domain over the sea plain, but instead wished to visit his mother in the underworld (Ne no kuni), with the result that he was banished.
		Declaring himself the winner in the trial, Susanoo ran amok and caused Amaterasu to hide herself away in the heavenly cave, for which offense Susanoo was again banished.

	Strange Horizons Reviews: The Grass-Cutting Sword and In The Night Garden by Catherynne M. Valente, reviewed by Donna ...
		After his fall, Susanoo finds himself on earth and "enfleshed." He marvels at his human body and is enraptured by how he sees the world through his now-human senses, delighting in the light and colors of the world around him.
		The storm god's tale is interleaved with segments told in the monster's voice—and the monster's narrative is in turn split between his voice and the voice of each of the women he has devoured, in a dialogue between eater and eaten, telling each woman's story.
		As, one by one, the stories of the eight daughters are told, Susanoo's voice also reaches into the past and tells the story of his father and mother, and of the birth of the world.

	The Pedestal Magazine
		As Susanoo sets off to find and slay the beast, his quest is interwoven not only with a recounting of the Shinto creation myth, but also the story of the monster and the maidens it has eaten told, remarkably, both in the creature and the young women’s voices.
		Even though Susanoo spends the length of the book seeking the monster, his thoughts rarely stray from Izanami, his earth-bound mother whom he alone loves and remembers.
		It is the hope of a reunion with her that ultimately drives him, and which brings the theme of parental abandonment and isolation full-circle, and ultimately brings the book to its unforgettable and beautifully understated conclusion.
