Book excerpt: This volume about Marugame is more an extended essay that takes snapshots of a city that is not well-known even in Japan. It covers a period from when I made my first visit in 1998 to 2015, the early chapters adapted from those that appeared in the first book I wrote. The waters of the Inland Sea lap on its shoreline; the air is tinged with salt, yet behind Marugame lie densely vegetated mountains that rise up steeply from a plain to create a geological amphitheatre an ever present backdrop and the backbone of Shikoku. Thus trapped by rock and sea, the people of Marugame define and live out their lives.
