Warm welcome to the Outsider,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Village Japan: Everyday Life in a Rural Japanese Community (Kindle Edition)
Easy reading and informative. I enjoyed the descriptions of life in a remote part of Japan. I allowed myself to consider the personal and community activities of village residents and their attitude to an Outsider.
When I think of Japan I recall the hustle and bustle of Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, Fukuoka and Narita - 127 million people. I recall the discipline demanded of me and many others who trained in Martial Arts This book took me into the intimate enclosure of the main characters. Routine, behaviour, likes and dislikes, conduct and values are quite different from most other cultures. The elder statesman is quite a character. |
