Sinopsis
Excerpt from My Joy-Ride Round the World
MY joy-ride around the world really began on a rainy Saturday afternoon in New York. It had been a ghastly day, and as I looked, for the hundredth time, across a sodden court at the fourteen rows of dull and staring windows in the opposite wall, that always made me think of the eyes in an idiot's face, I had a swift revulsion against it all, and I realized that I was sick of the great city, sick of my work, sickest of all of myself, and that there was no health in me.

Calificación del vendedor: 4 de 5 estrellas
Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book follows the author's global journey, traversing East and West. Along the way, she discovers that the East is far more than the Orientalist fantasy imagined in the West. Her trip begins in Japan, a place that, despite rapid modernisation, retains elements of its feudal tradition. She finds a land shaped by the paradoxical tension between ancient beliefs and modern ideas, epitomised in her visit to the Nogi Shrine, built in honour of a general who committed ritual suicide in the 20th century following the death of the Emperor. The author also explores the evolution of Japan, from its emergence from centuries of isolation to its position as an economic powerhouse. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781330681770_0
