Book Launch: Japan Unexpected

"You might know about tea ceremonies, samurai and vending machines, but have you heard of honorific speech, a shrine to carry gods through a neighbourhood, or miso ramen-flavoured ice-cream? Explore some little known and sometimes surprising elements of one of the most unique countries in the world, as viewed by Carrie, a young Australian teaching in Japanese elementary schools. Even those things that are known about in the outside world are examined in detail by Carrie and unexpected elements brought to light."

The book launch is a chance to hear the author give readings and to get to know her and her book through a Q&A. PLUS you can go to the wonderful Long Beach Twilight Market either before, after or both - it's on right next door
