From Library Journal:
Okubo Diary is Moeran's episodic account of life in a rural Japanese village. His previous book, Lost Innocence , was a scholarly study of Japanese folk craft potters. This work is a more personalized portrayal of his years of fieldwork. The Diary reveals the social relations of the village people and the difficulties an anthropologist faces in ``going native.'' Although the author seems to feel he did not succeed in ``becoming one'' with his informants, he did succeed in producing a fascinating inside look at their day-to-day lives. Recommended for academic and larger public libraries. Robin B. Devin, Univ. of Rhode Island Lib., Kingston
