Sex, Marriage and the Modern Japanese Woman
Apologies in advance to the people coming to this site from search engines (”Japanese Bikini Pictures” or something like that is, for some reason unknown to man, woman or beast, the top search keyword for this site) but this post is probably not what you were looking for.
Chin Music Press have a new book out: GOODBYE MADAME BUTTERFLY - Sex, Marriage and the Modern Japanese Woman
The publishers have this to say about the book:
Our latest book, Goodbye Madame Butterfly, is being shipped from the printers as we speak. It’s a beautiful, unique book written by Sumie Kawakami and designed by Craig Mod. Here’s what Robert Whiting, author of You Gotta Have Wa and Tokyo Underworld, had to say about it:
“An eye-opening, detailed look at the private, intimate lives of Japanese women — a fascinating subject that has long been confined to the shadows in Japan. This is an intelligent and authoritative work, covering everything from adultery to sex volunteers and the role of fortune tellers in Japanese romance. It is at once illuminating and entertaining, credible and so engrossing you will find it difficult to put down. Sumie Kawakami, a highly skilled and talented journalist, with experience at one of Japan’s top newspapers, has done her job extremely well. Goodbye Madame Butterfly is an immensely valuable addition to the literature on contemporary Japan.”
We have a very special offer for you at our new Goodbye Madame Butterfly site. Make sure to click all the way through to find out what it is. The offer will be good through the end of August.
Looks like an interesting read. Perhaps it will explain Chooch’s love of salt, ice cubes, American entertainment gossip and bubble wrap.
