Summary
A young Japanese woman was running through Tokyo station screaming “Save me! Save me!” There was a Japanese man chasing her and closing in. He grabbed her wrist and caught her, about 10 feet in front of me. The woman was still yelling “Save me! Save me!”, but the Japanese people in the crowded station ignored her, not wanting to get involved.
This is the beginning of just one of the stories from my experience living in Japan in the 1980s, where I had moved right after graduating university. It was still rare to see an American who could speak Japanese fluently. This book guides the listener through my many adventures navigating through Japanese culture while living in the outskirts of Tokyo, as well as Tokyo proper.
