Cover of Loti: Japan & Corea (PDF)

First published in 2002. In this book Loti describes his second visit to Japan, and there are many charming pictures in the true Loti style: pictures of himself seated solitary on black velvet cushions, while two little Japanese maidens sing and dance for his sole pleasure: the lonely wood by the deserted temple, where he keeps a daily tryst with a Japanese child love; of the mountainside where the graves are; of a quaint fete day; of various tea-houses and of a visit to Corea and the King’s Court there.
