Description:
London.: Jonathan Cape.. 1984.. Black and white photographic illustrations, xiii + 242pp, index, a very good hardback copy in dustjacket with a slightly sunned spine. "This is a book which explains more about the Japanese than most Westerners ever discover. It is about the popular, collective imagination of a people as reflected in the films, comics, plays and books which appeal to the large majority of them. As such it offers an insight into the raunchy, violent and often morbid side of the Japanese beyond the delicate forms of art with which we are most familiar." (Publisher's description). Contains chapters entitled "The Eternal Mother," "Demon Woman," "The Third Sex" and "The Art of Prostitution." .
