Sayonara Japan

Few people can truly understand another country and write about it with insight aplomb and humour. Clearly Max Value is not one of them. But fewer still can live in a foreign country for 25 years and still not have a clue. This takes unparalleled ineptitude and naivety and it's here the author really shines. 'Dazed and confused in Japan' 'Lost and incontinent in the Orient' 'How to mangle a foreign language' '101 Ways to Infuriate Locals' would all be good subtitles for this look back on an expatriate's life in Japan.
