About meLibrarian. Need I say more?

About my librarySlowly rediscovering my personal library after spending a year away from most of my books, overseas teaching in Japan (me, not the books). Love Canadian literature and books about society/politics/history, as well as art (especially Japanese/Asian art).

I enjoyed your review of Tokyo: A Certain Style. I need to see if I can find it here in Nagoya where I live. It at first amazed me about the stuff-stuff-stuff that always was a feature of the "western" part of Japanese dwellings in contrast to the stereotypical image of sparsely and exquisitely pristine Japanese rooms. A newer phenomenon (in the past two years) is more and more little storage unit rentals that are springing up, Fittingly small, Japanese style--I'd doubt you could fit a king size mattress into one--not that anyone has king size beds.
