Description

A clean, unmarked book with a tight binding. Slight edge wear to dust jacket. 5 7/8"w x 7 1/4"h. 48 pages. "In this charming record of a trip from Tokyo to Hiroshima, two architects capture the incidental magic of life in the countryside of Japan. Armed with camera and sketch book, Sir Hugh and Lady Casson recreate a lyrical series of moments unfolding in the landscape around them. The temples, the people going about their daily business, in the small details the larger picture appears, gentle surprising, enigmatic."
