The Japanese Chronicles

Nicolas Bouvier was an image merchant and photographer as well as a writer. The Eland edition of “Japanese Chronicles” will be accompanied by many of his startling images of Japan. “The Japanese Chronicles” is a distillation of Bouvier`s lifelong quest for Japan and his many travels, so that the reader is able to discover the country through the eyes of both a passionate young man, the sensual appeciation of a middle-aged artist and the serenity of an experience writer. `Like other great literature, [Bouvier`s] Chronicles pulls the reader into a timeless dimension where all is transformed and there is no separation between the reader and the work` – “San Francisco Review of Books”. `Some of the most resonant and perceptive travel writing in recent years`. – “Kirkus Reviews”. `Bouvier`s distinguished accomplishments have culminated here in a book that succeeds in transforming personal experiences into a series of epiphanies for the reader`. – “Booklist”.
