Book excerpt: Britain and Japan have much in common. This book explores both the parallels and the differences then goes on to outline some of the reasons that lie behind them. It also highlights many myths and stereotypes that surround both countries. Many aspects of Japanese and British history are similar. This is especially true in the manner that both absorbed successive waves of ideas and influences from the mainland. They then adapted these to suit their respective cultures. This is erroneously regarded by some as being unique to Japan.Other writers before me have compared the UK and Japan but this book is an attempt to take that one step further. A variety of topics from literature and marriage to history and politics are covered. It is my hope that this book will be a bridge to a deeper understanding of both cultures.

Book excerpt: Drawing its allure from the gold of the sun and the rule of the emperors, the chrysanthemum winds its way through ancient Chinese culture into the gardens of French impressionist painters and onto the pages of American novels. The flower signifies both life and death, as parts of Europe associate it with mourning while others celebrate it for its golden rays that light the autumnal gloom. In this fascinating book, Twigs Way follows the fortunes of the flower through philosophy, art, literature, and death, recounting the stories of the men and women who became captivated by this extraordinary bloom. With a range of vibrant illustrations, including works by Hiroshige, Monet, and Mondrian, Chrysanthemum will captivate lovers of art, flowers, history, and culture.

There they will travel to find Georgiana Darcy's elusive former teacher, the wandering thing Mugin, so that she can finally complete her training before settling down to married life in the English countryside. But getting into Japan, a country hostile to Westerners and controlled by the Tokugawa shogun, won't be easy, and finding Mugin will be even harder. Is the young couple up to the challenge? In Altman's eighth installment of the Darcys and the Bingleys, we travel far abroad to the dangerous world of 19th-Century Asia, where political tensions are high and danger is very real.
