Thoughts and Scenery
About This Novel
"Reflections and Landscapes" is a collection of travel notes and essays by the famous modern Japanese writer Yokomitsu Riichi. Most of the selected works intuitively expose the inner sensibility with strange rhetoric and brilliant words. They are highly contagious, exquisite, thoughtful, euphemistic, and not lacking in depth.

The ten autumn days of Edo are gone, but they treat a foreign country as their hometown.
An outstanding writer as famous as Kawabata Yasunari.
Schopenhauer said that happiness is always short-lived and relative, but pain is eternal and absolute. Probably for this reason, people's experience of happiness is always not as profound as their experience of pain.
All conditioned phenomena are like bubbles in a dream, like dew or lightning, and should be viewed as such.
