Acerca de

Once the most populous settlement in Japan, Kamakura is a city of shrines and temples a short train journey away from Tokyo. This short book by Japanese novelist, poet and essayist Yone Noguchi, who was equally comfortable writing in English and Japanese, is not so much a guide to the city as a collection of reflections in poetry and prose on Kamakura's Buddhist legacy. - Summary by Phil Benson
