VLVL2 (9): Roppongi

[Dave Monroe]

Great book, albeit published here as  ...

Buruma, Ian.  Behind the Mask: On Sexual Demons,
   Sacred Mothers, Transvestites, Gangsters,
   Drifters, and other Japanese Cultural Heroes.
   New York: Pantheon, 1984.

Strangely out-of-print, but see most recently ...

Buruma, Ian.  Inventing Japan: 1853-1964.
   New York: Modern Library, 2003.
