I've spent years in Japan and I in no way find this book to present the asain people or cultures in any fake-light. I suggest you don't make comments on what you don't know. Save your ignorance for more industrious uses.
Hi Dominic, I am full-on 100% Japanese citizen. About as bi-lingual, bi-cultural as you get.
I probably shouldn't have used the word faux. "forced" would have been better.
Thank you Michi, and Dominic I ask, how much do you know about true Japanese culture yourself? You can spend many years in Jamaica on a resort and never find out about TRUE Jamaica.
every japanese thing i have seen or read , manga, anime , cartoon , games etc always has a pink coloured tree called "cherry blossom" with pink leaf like things falling from it. so i guess that tree is some kind of "paragon of BEAUTY" in japan/ or traditional-japan-merchandise :)
