What you need to know before your trail

Peter Meadowe, a teacher in Tokyo,  finds himself in the hot and sticky city of Kyoto for his summer holiday. Although married, he has a mistress called Noriko. But in the small wood-and-paper Japanese house he has rented, he finds  yet another woman to desire. But there are so many to choose from. As he is making his ‘selections’, another woman arrives to see him – this time it’s his wife from England.

Travel Guide

Kyoto

The city of temples and temptation if this novel is anything to go by. The author used to be a teacher in Kyoto and has seen everything and anythings so this is a very unique view of Japan you are seeing through his eyes!

The summer might be hot in Kyoto but with the amount of trouble and women Peter is attracting, it’s about to get a whole lot hotter. Living in a typical shared Japanese house, what’s not typical are the women and the living arrangements. There is a Japanese comedy with many actors. This is a very unique view of Kyoto and it’s a lot more than temples and towers!
