Gay Japan Exploring Queer Spirits: Book Review
New travel guidebook with a difference
Author Masashi Harada has published a travel guidebook with a difference on
Japan with a definite twist.
A Travel Guide to Queer Japan: Exploring Queer Spirits (Lulu, USA) also
focuses on love and intimate relationships between men in Japanese history,
an aspect not too well known in `western' culture.
Japan has a long history related to love and intimate same-sex
relationships. Spiritual relations and intimacy between men and the beauty
of young men are accepted and respected among Japanese people.
Masashi Harada's fascinating book explores Japan's queer spirits through
historical and religious locations throughout the country. Included are
queer towns, Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples related to queer people or
queer historical persons.
