Richie moved to Tokyo just after World War II. And he is still there, still writing. This book is the first compilation of the best of Richie's writings on Japan, with excerpts from his critical work on film (Richie helped introduce Japanese film to the West in the late 1950s) and his unpublished private journal, plus fiction, Zen musings, and masterful essays on culture, travel, people, and style. With a critical introduction and full bibliography. Donald Richie's many books include The Films of Akira Kurosawa, The Japanese Tattoo, and the PBS favorite The Inland Sea. Vienna resident Arturo Silva lived in Japan for 18 years. "To read [The Donald Richie Reader and The Japan Journals] is like diving for pearls. Dip into any part of them and you will surely find treasures about the cinema, literature, traveling, writing. The passages are evocative, erotic, playful, and often profound." - Japanese Language and LiteratureLanguage: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 223mmItem Length: 177mmItem Weight: 481gAuthor: Donald RichieContributor: Arturo Silva (Edited by)Genre: Travel & TransportItem Width: 20mmRelease Year: 2001 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
