yesterday i got two books by kyoichi tsuzuki from amazon.co.jp. the books are roadside japan and satellite of love. i've wanted roadside japan since i read about it, but i heard it was out of print, so i took a chance when i saw it on amazon. unfortunately, this is a pocketsize edition with no english in it. i was hoping for more of a coffee size table book so that the pictures would be larger. despite its small size, i'm happy to have it to thumb through and discover these odd places in japan. the other book is larger, and is chock full of photos of various japanese love hotels. i like it, but for some reason in my imagination i expected this to be even more wild than it is. some are, but i guess i expected more.
