Dogs and Demons, Tales from the Dark Side of Japan

Dogs and Demons, Tales from the Dark Side of Japan

by Alex Kerr

  • CULTURAL PORTRAIT
  • 2001
  • PAPER
  • 320 PAGES

Alex Kerr, a long-term resident of Japan, documents the changing economy and current economic crisis in this provocative book. He sees the effects of a myopic modernization everywhere, from a damaged environment to the collapse of the tourism industry. In making a case for examining Japan with the emphasis of simply the economy, Kerr creates a fascinating, compelling work.  (JPN55, $17.00)
