日本とアメリカの友情
最近、日本とアメリカの友情に関する本を二冊読みました。両方とも、若いアメリカ人が東京に占領下の時に来ました。「Donald Richie』は有名な映画の評論家になります。『Japan Journals 1947-2004」では、リッチーは彼の売春婦や女装趣味の人や季節労働者や移民の友達との関係をはなします。今まだ書いています。
もうひとつの本では、アメリカ人のヤクザが六本木で成功する話です。仕事はピザとプロレスと不動産です。死ぬ前に、『自分の国を去る人は『asshole』だ』と言った。Whiting, Robert、『 Tokyo Underworld: The Fast Times and Hard Life of an American Gangster in Japan』 (1999)。
Japanese-American Friendship
Recently, I read two book about Japanese-American friendship. In both stories, young Americans arrive in Tokyo during the Occupation. Donald Richie becomes a famous film critic. In Japan Journals 1947-2004, he’s also seen to be a friend of street walkers, transvestites, migrant workers and immigrants. He is still writing now.
In the other book, an American gangster becomes King of Roppongi. His business includes pizza, pro-wrestling and real estate. In his old age, he said that a person who leaves his country is “an asshole.” Whiting, Robert. 1999. Tokyo Underworld: The Fast Times and Hard Life of an American Gangster in Japan.
