Looking forward to your review!
Oh, and since you are such a prolific reader of Japan-related literature: if you ever want to review a book that's not listed in our review section, I'll be glad to add it for you.

That might take some time as I'm a slow reader and usually have about 8-10 on the go at once! I even read in between my sets at the gym rather than just circumambulating around the place for three minutes. I get funny looks from time to time ("He be watching at da paper bunch") but only once has asked me what I'm reading (Quantum Theory) and she just smirked ('pretentious git') and walked away!Looking forward to your review!
I've nearly finished Dog Shōgun (about 2 years left) and Mishima on Hagakure. I'll give you a shout when I'm done.Oh, and since you are such a prolific reader of Japan-related literature: if you ever want to review a book that's not listed in our review section, I'll be glad to add it for you.
