A BEGINNERS GUIDE TO JAPAN - PICO IYER KARTONIE...

Winner of the Edward Stanford Travel Memoir of the Year 2020   How does a sushi bar explain a
Japanese poem?  Why do Japanese couples plan matching outfits for their honeymoon?  Why are so
many things in Japan the opposite of what we expect?  After thirty-two years in Japan  Pico
Iyer knows the country as few others can. In A Beginner's Guide to Japan   he dashes from
baseball games to love-hotels and from shopping malls to zen temple gardens to find fresh ways
of illuminating his adopted home. Playful and surreptitiously profound  this is a guidebook to
a Japan few have ever seen before.   'Rarely in any writing on Japan is provocation so
elegantly and surgically performed' Financial Times
