The Changing Japanese Woman: from Yamatonadeshiko to Yamatonadegucci 2. Painos

The Changing Japanese Woman: From Yamatonadeshiko to YamatonadeGucci is a humorous take on the notion of ideal Japanese womanhood in the traditional sense, an idea that clashes with the wide array of opportunities open to women today beyond the domestic sphere. The book also touches on Western idealization of aspects of the "Orient" and reflects on modern materialism in a society for which sacrifice used to be highly treasured.
