Japansubculture has an interview with Jake Adelstein, who was previously a police beat reporter for the Yomiuri Shimbun (one of the major national daily papers in Japan), which is remarkable because Adelstein is obviously not Japanese.
I’m definitely looking forward to “Tokyo Vice” and may do a review once I’ve read it.
Oh man, this book looks awesome. Thanks for the tip.
Thanks for the posting. Would you like a review copy? Just drop me an email and I’ll try to get you one before I leave for Japan. Yes, I am obviously not Japanese but the children of a Japanese detective friend of mine once were convinced that I was a Tengu–which is a very Japanese monster. So I’m halfway there.
