Fear and Trembling

My first one star book ever; what can I say?

Easy to read, but as I progressed I found it more and more offensive. The comments about the honour of suicide for example. I found the author's attitude shocking. Was this the result of finding themselves subject to casual racism? I experienced racism in Japan, but it didn't inspire me to condemn the country the way the author does. I don't know if this has been translated into Japanese, I really hope it hasn't; not because of the cultural criticism but more for the venom with which it is delivered and the ridiculous conclusions drawn.
