Features: "Peeking into Japan" is another unique and perspective-altering picture book by Kiyoshi Nishimiya, following "Peeking into India" and "Sketchbook of a River Journey." This time, the author focuses on his homeland—Japan, from the Imperial Palace to prisons, from locks to tattoos, from the luxurious and comfortable Orient Express to Japan's Shinkansen. He writes and draws with meticulous detail, his childlike curiosity vividly portrayed on the pages.
