By the time Loti arrived in Japan, the old world was rapidly disappearaing . One gets the sense in his writing of somenone deperately holding on to a lovely dream as it slowly fades from memory. That dream lives again in this superbly produced book (originally published in France). The vivid images of this strange and wonderful civilization dazzle the eyes and size the imagination. These are photographs from another time. And another world.
