Book Description
"If you don't know me, that's okay. There were many days I didn't know who I was either..." My name is Chiharu Morita. Of course, that is the name on this blog, so that is who I am. The Chiharu you know is only a shadow. Yes, I was in a group called Butterfly Tops. Now I am a composer, the person responsible for some of the pop songs you hear on the radio. Those aren't the reasons you know me, though. You know me because of YUMI. The woman who comes into your living room every night on dramas, music shows, and radio request lines. The most famous woman in the country. Yumi, as you may know, is my childhood friend. We graduated high school and went to audition for a new girl group they were creating. The rest is history. For you, anyway. For me, I still breathe this every day. Because I love Yumi. I have since I was a young girl too stupid to know the words for what I felt. This is my confession. This is the story of not only me, but Yumi too. Of how we left our town and became household names. Of how I fell in love with her and did everything in my power to protect her from the evil in this world. I did not always succeed. I will not rest until you know the truth. All the lies the agencies and labels tried to make us spew will be known. Maybe this will mean the end of what career I have left. But if I don't tell this story, I won't know who I am anymore. I want to be more than "the girl who loved Yumi," and yet it's the only identity I can ever remember having. For better or worse, let us begin. Set in contemporary Japan, "LOVE, YUMI" is the epic journey one woman embarks on to complete the impossible: to save her best friend and the woman she loves from a brutal, all-consuming pop culture world. Contains every situation that entails.

Book Description
Japan and the United States became close political allies so quickly after the end of World War II, that it seemed as though the two countries had easily forgotten the war they had fought. Here Yoshikuni Igarashi offers a provocative look at how Japanese postwar society struggled to understand its war loss and the resulting national trauma, even as forces within the society sought to suppress these memories. Igarashi argues that Japan's nationhood survived the war's destruction in part through a popular culture that expressed memories of loss and devastation more readily than political discourse ever could. He shows how the desire to represent the past motivated Japan's cultural productions in the first twenty-five years of the postwar period. Japanese war experiences were often described through narrative devices that downplayed the war's disruptive effects on Japan's history. Rather than treat these narratives as obstacles to historical inquiry, Igarashi reads them along with counter-narratives that attempted to register the original impact of the war. He traces the tensions between remembering and forgetting by focusing on the body as the central site for Japan's production of the past. This approach leads to fascinating discussions of such diverse topics as the use of the atomic bomb, hygiene policies under the U.S. occupation, the monstrous body of Godzilla, the first Western professional wrestling matches in Japan, the transformation of Tokyo and the athletic body for the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, and the writer Yukio Mishima's dramatic suicide, while providing a fresh critical perspective on the war legacy of Japan.

Book Description
Lira thinks a girl like her can’t change the world. In the far future, Lira faces a new world order very different from what we have today. A plague has decimated the human population, and their only hope of surviving is to strike a deal with the vampires. Humans must donate to the blood banks in exchange for the cure found only in the vampires’ blood. To fast-track the return to civilization, a caste system was imposed, putting Lira in one of the lowest and poorest rungs of society. Her only hope of rising above her station is to get into the exclusive Imperial Academy. The good news: Lira’s acceptance letter arrived in the mail today. The bad news: Human students must study alongside vampires hungry for blood drawn directly from the vein. And for some strange reason, they all want Lira’s blood—including Nicholas, the mysterious vampire prince. By going to the academy, Lira is already changing the world. She just doesn’t know it yet.

Book Description
One of the biggest challenges facing America today is an epidemic of obesity. Americans' diets are bulking them up, yet starving them nutritionally. Japan has the greatest life expectancy in the world, mostly due to diet. In Yumi's Yummies, many nutritious Japanese ingredients have been fused with those from America to create a unique cuisine that is both tasty and healthful. For example, Miso is most often thought of as a type of Japanese soup. However, when mixed with ground turkey and American spices it provides a taste that makes family and guests sit up and take notice, taking them on an adventurous culinary journey that is nutritious, somehow familiar yet like nothing they ever tasted. Yumi's Yummies has a little of everything, from appetizers, soups, and salads to main entrees, side dishes, and desserts. Once you and your family get hooked, you'll start experimenting on your own with this whole new world of tastes.
