Summary: good book
Comment: honestly I have only read parts of the book, but of those that I've read, I think Miyoshi does a great job discussing notions of power withing Japan, and various phases of contact between Japan and the 'west'. There is a great chapter on Junichiro Tanizaki entitled: "the Lure of the West." and another chapter on Japanese women and women writers discusses how women pose a threat to the traditional patriarchy in Japan. Overall a really good book about Japanese contact with 'others'. i plan on reading the entire book after finals.
