Bøger af Kazuya Takaoka

This pocket-sized collection of passages from Buddhist scripture, Japanese prayers, and poetry concerning human affliction and suffering are shown together with 46 images of Buddhist icons such as statues, clay molded reliefs decorated interiors of temples, miniature pagodas, pagoda-shaped reliquaries, and woodblock prints.

This is not a cookbook; there are no recipes inside. This is an art book, showcasing the beauty of a year of Wagashi Japanese confections, framed by the traditional Japanese four seasons in a literary/poetic way.
