This looks very interesting.

I once grilled Nathan about Richie, and he was rather taciturn. Looking
forward to this discussion very much.

*With apologies for cross-postings or duplications...*

Dear Friends,
This autumn marks the 50th Anniversary of the first publication of Donald
Richie's beloved book on Japan, *The Inland Sea. * It's hard to believe
that a half-century has passed since 1971, when -- fresh out of grad school
-- I started my first real job, as a junior editor at Weatherhill
Publishers in Tokyo, where I had a hand (along with many others) in editing
Donald's manuscript. Over the decades, *The Inland Sea* has remained
constantly in print, has been read by millions, and has earned its
reputation as a true classic!

On the evening of December 8, the Japan Society of Boston will present an
online webinar about Richie and his beautiful book, which has been called
"the finest book on Japan ever written."  I will serve as moderator for a
conversation between the well-known writer/scholars John Nathan and Roland
Kelts, speaking about a book and a writer we admire so much.

Please join us in this 50th anniversary celebration of *The Inland Sea *and
its celebrated author,  Donald Richie.  For details, see the attachment
below.
Hope to see you online on December 8 at 7:00pm (EST).

With best regards,
Peter
*All are welcome!*
