Год издания: 0000
A book for comic lovers and Japanophiles of all ages, Diary of a Tokyo Teen presents a unique look at modern-day Japan through a young woman's eyes. Born in Tokyo to a Japanese mother and an American father in 1997, Christine Mari Inzer spent her early years in Japan and relocated to the United States in 2003. The summer before she turned sixteen, she returned to Tokyo, making a solo journey to get reacquainted with her birthplace. Through illustrations, photos, and musings, Inzer documented her journey. In Diary of a Tokyo Teen , Inzer explores the cutting-edge fashions of Tokyo's trendy Harajuku district, eats the best sushi of her life at the renowned Tsukiji fish market, and hunts down geisha in the ancient city of Kyoto. As she shares the trials and pleasures of travel from one end of a trip to the other, Inzer introduces the host of interesting characters she meets and offers a unique—and often hilarious—look at a fascinating country and an engaging tale of one girl rediscovering her roots. **Listed as a 2016 Great Graphic Novel for Teens by the Young Adult Library Services Association**

Minu Tokyo. Nahtamatu piiri taga
Автор: Maarja Yano
Год издания:
Pole lihtne armastada linna, mis sind esialgu eirab ja hiljem ahvardab sulle kaela kukkuda. Aga kas selleks, et uhest linnast kirjutada, pean ma teda tingimata armastama? Motlesin selle ule pikalt ja joudsin jareldusele: ei pea.Hetkest, kui loobusin kohustusest Tokyot armastada, hakkasin ma selle linna kaekaigu vastu huvi tundma. Tagasihoidlik huvi kasvas aja jooksul sumpaatiaks ja edasi juba leebeks kiindumuseks. Pidasin end ikka suureks unistajaks, aga ka oma koige lennukamates fantaasiates ei kujutlenud ma, et ulja naljana ette voetud projekt „Jaapani poiss aastaks“ lopeb abiellumisega samurai suguvosasse.Nahtamatu on see piir unistuste ja toeluse vahel. Millal saab fantaasiast tegelikkus, voorast inimesest oma, kaugest kultuurist kodu? Millisel hetkel saab lapsest taiskasvanu? Raske on margata, millal ma nendest piiridest ule astusin voi kas ikka astusin.Maarja Yano
