Description and Table of Contents

Description

The author spent a year in Japan in search of contemplation. Instead he found a land of contradictions, where the monks spent their evenings watching game shows. It was through his relationship with Sachiko, a Japanese lady who combined the east with the west, that he found his own vision of Japan.
