This is a captivating, heart-warming, funny, and informative look at contemporary Japan, through the eyes of an American expat. John Rachel arrived for his first visit to Japan 13 years ago, is now married to a brilliant Japanese lady a music teacher, concert pianist, opera singer and has lived in Japan permanently for over eight years. This book is a collection of sixty-three anecdotes about the Land of the Rising Sun, its people, culture, traditions, and institutions. It includes over 450 photographs of a side of Japan which will amaze and charm you.
With the publication of Love Connection, his recent pictorial memoir, Live From Japan!, and the spoof on the self-help crazes of the 80s and 90s, Sex, Lies & Coffee Beans, he has three more novels in the pipeline: Mary K, the story of a cosmetics salesgirl with an IQ of 230, the surreal final book of his End-of-the-World Trilogy; and finally, The Last Giraffe, an anthropological drama and love story involving both the worship and devouring of giraffes. It deliciously unfolds in 19th Century sub-Saharan Africa.
The author's last permanent residence in America was Portland, Oregon where he had a state-of-the-art ProTools recording studio, music production house, a radio promotion and music publishing company. He recorded and produced several artists in the Pacific Northwest, releasing and promoting their music on radio across America and overseas.
John Rachel now lives in a quiet, traditional, rural Japanese community, where he sets his non-existent watch by the thrice-daily ringing of temple bells, at a local Shinto shrine.
