Blog - FUKAWA Ryō

Japan Fukawa Ryō

Vertical parkingVertical parkingToday I received in the mail this Fukawa Ryō book, which I bought on Yahoo! Auctions. It's called "hitonchi de jūden sun na yo!!" ("Don't you charge up at someone else's place!!") (2001, 416 pages).
I had seen a similar book of his at a café once and lately I wanted to get one really bad.

It consists mostly of one-liner jokes, and includes English translations (though many aren't quite as funny in English). The bottom of each page includes extra thoughts in small print.
The one-liners are all things said by one person to another about something they should be ashamed of.

This book reminds me of kanashii toki, which Jean gave me on my birthday last year.
I like this kind of book since it can help me memorize some new vocabulary while being a fun read.
