"A sharp-tongued spokesman for Japan''s environment and traditions" The New York Times
In Alex Kerr''s critically acclaimed Lost Japan and Dogs and Demons, he documented the decline of the traditional landscapes of Japan, his adopted home of many yearsHere, in Hidden Japan he makes a journey of rediscovery to find the wonders that still remain.
Originally published in Japanese as a call to preserve disappearing facets of Japan''s rich and ancient culture, Hidden Japan records Kerr''s travels to various remote and lesser-known places where pockets of traditional culture can still be foundSome are farawaylike Aogashima Island, 200 miles south of Tokyowhile others are easy to reach, such as Mii-dera temple just east of Kyoto. The ten engaging essays in this book describe surprising remnants of Japan''s fragile physical and cultural environment, including:
Kerr''s sharp eye for detail and exquisite descriptions of Japanese, arts, architecture and foods will inspire readers who already appreciate his unique look at the "reality" of Japan beyond the romanceHis personal involvement and obvious love for his subjects encourage us all to think more carefully about our own traditions and environment, and to challenge ourselves to search for better solutions to preserve what is of value all around us.
