Mishimas Sword by Christopher Ross

The stunning book from Christopher Ross, Sunday Times top 10 bestselling author of Tunnel Visions.

‘(Ross's) digressive reflections on his quest are personal, pertinent and philosophical: he gives a vivid picture of a Japan still haunted by nostalgia and nationalism' The Times

'Entertaining, deftly written and wise…a very good book. Its achievement is that not only does it make the reader learn, it makes the reader think.' Daily Telegraph

'An engaging patchwork of a book, a blend of cultural history, memoir, travelogue and philosophical rumination.' Hari Kunzru, Sunday Telegraph

‘“Mishima's Sword” resembles a bento, those beautiful lacquered lunch boxes in which delicacies nestle side by side in separate compartments, each a feast in miniature.' New Statesman

'A fascinating read.' Arena Magazine

Christopher Ross has travelled in over a hundred countries. He now lives in Oxfordshire. His first book, ‘Tunnel Visions: Journeys of an Underground Philosopher’, was published in 2001.
