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
