This time, author Patricia Almartegui takes us on a journey to Japan, introducing us to this country that so many dream of visiting. She gives us glimpses into the fascinating customs of its people, its rich history, and everything that contributed to the formation of modern Japan as we know it today. This book is a collection of excerpts from the author's personal diaries during two trips to Japan, reflecting on the country and its people's traditions over many years. We also learn about Japanese cinema, literature, manga, painting, architecture, and what distinguishes many Japanese cities. The author wrote it based on her conviction that experiences don't end with writing, but rather with reading.
