Few books about the city have made such an impression on me or had a greater influence on my thinking. -Richard Lloyd Parry, Asia editor at The Times, author of The People Who Eat Darkness

Author Information

Peter Popham was raised in London and moved to Tokyo to teach English in the late 1970s as the city's boom years got underway. He quickly realised he had a front-row seat for a major cultural eruption, and Tokyo: the City at the End of the World, his first book, captures the exuberant ambition of those years. He joined The Independent in 1990 as a roving foreign correspondent and reported for the paper from more than two dozen countries. His other books include The Lady and the Peacock, on Burma's democratic revolution, which was a best-seller around the world.
