About This Item
Australia: Angus & Robertson, 1968. D/J is OK, but has some shelf wear/tear. The book is in good used condition. Hal Porter's Japan is no tourist colour print of cherry blossom, the tea ceremony, and temples in the rain. It is the new, resurgent Japan of spreading concrete, underground villages, plastic surgery for all, and new religions with millions of regimented followers, it is the Japan of the Bright New Life - a life that already rivals the visions of Brave New Worls and 1984. You will receive the book seen in the image.. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. First Edition. Cloth. Good/Fair to Good..
