Meeting With Japan: A Personal Introduction To Its People, Their Culture And Their History

For all that we have come to know about Japan in recent years, there is probably still no country more alien to us, more exotic in the true sense. This magnificently imaginative and penetrating book offers a personal introduction to the Japanese today, their age-old culture, and their history. It is the work of a highly intelligent , richly informed, and observant Italian scholar, linguist, and photographer, who spent many years there as a teacher, as a wartime internee, and recently as a sympathetic traveler. Though presented in personal terms and partly in the form of a travelogue, it is cultural history on a very high level. It is one of those books which rise up from time to time as singular landmarks on our literary horizons.
