This is a book by the renowned orientalist and art historian Eugene Semenovich Steiner. He is a research professor at the Center for Japanese Studies, School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London, winner of "Book of the Year" and "Illuminator" awards, a great connoisseur of Japan.
"Approaching Fujiyama" - an incredibly fascinating story about Japan and its people, about their special understanding of life and the nature of things, which at all times allowed them to bravely withstand the toughest trials and always revive their country after any shocks.
The life of densely populated cities with their tiny houses, mobile kebab-yakitoria, Russians and Russian in Japan, Shinto temples and eternal harmony with nature - the author writes about this and much more, turning Japan from a distant country into a close and understandable to those who want to know it.
The first part of the book is the stories about little-known Japan, based on thirty years of experience of staying and studying the country, the minutiae of ordinary Japanese life, which are not written about anywhere else, incredible encounters and personal stories.
The second part, the section "Around the Cities and Temples of Japan" can - and should - be used while walking around the places described by the author. At the moment, there is no more comprehensive and selective description for a cultural and religious pilgrimage in Japan.
