Edward the Scrivener


Reading Seidensticker's book on Kafu Nagai, which is as much about Edo as it is about Kafu himself.  An epitaph of sorts, for what Edo was under the Shogunate.  The book could easily be considered the third book in a trilogy in Sedensticker's writings about Tokyo.  Makes me want to walk around the city and explore.
