Requests:  0 Summary:  After thirty-two years in Japan, Pico Iyer can use everything from anime to Oscar Wilde to show how his adopted home is both hauntingly familiar and the strangest place on earth. "Arguably the world's greatest living travel writer" (Outside). He draws on readings, reflections, and conversations with Japanese friends to illuminate an unknown place for newcomers, and to give longtime residents a look at their home through fresh eyes. A Beginner's Guide to Japan is a playful and profound guidebook full of surprising, brief, incisive glimpses into Japanese culture. Iyer's adventures and observations as he travels from a meditation-hall to a love-hotel, from West Point to Kyoto Station, make for a constantly surprising series of provocations guaranteed to pique the interest and curiosity of those who don't know Japan, and to remind those who do of the wide range of fascinations the country and culture contain.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hanapepe Public Library Adult Nonfiction 925.05 Iy Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Nonfiction 952.05 Iy Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 952.05 Iy Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 952.05 Iyer Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 952.05 Iy Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Nonfiction 952.05 Iy Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 952.05 Iy Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Koloa P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 952.05 Iy Checked out 07/01/2024 Add Copy to MyList McCully-Moiliili Public Library Adult Nonfiction 952.05 Iy Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 952.05 Iy Checked In   Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
