I looked for a book on Japan with photos and lots of information on daily life. This book presents these interests but the pictures are very small, seem to have been taken with a phone, on the spot: they are often ugly pictures that have no artistic interest. Lyrically, information about Tokyo are present, we learn fun details. The tone is comic, but sometimes ironic or even sarcastic - it's very Parisian! And came to the half of the book, we go to Paris, but then, I was not looking at all a book about Paris, its people and their Parisian life so it no longer interested me at all.
