Very detailed

I have been told by other frequent visitors that some of the manners content is a little harsh then what really happens in Japan. But the history and business details are interesting. Good overall for a first time visitor.

Visualized every word as told by the Narrator

I loved it and enjoyed it thoroughly. I listened to the audible Before and After my visit to Japan in October. The Narrator helped me to visualize Japan very succinctly. It’s a short story, but it’s a very informative and an accurate story of Japan and its people. You will be prepared for what to expect if you’re planning to visit this beautiful country for the first time. I was excited to listen to this book before I visited Japan but equally as excited to listen when I returned. Because after having been there, I could reminisce about what I saw and heard as was told in the story. All true. Japan…a beautiful country, rich culture, historic traditions and gracious people. It was an experience of a Lifetime.
