A renowned journalist for London's The Times and the author of People Who Eat Darkness, Richard Lloyd Parry delivers the definitive account of the disastrous earthquake and tsunami that struck Japan in 2011, and the stories of the survivors.
Named One of the Best Books of the Year by The Guardian, NPR, GQ, The Economist, Bookforum, and LitHub On March 11, 2011, a powerful earthquake sent a 120-foot-high tsunami smashing into the coast of northeast Japan. By the time the sea retreated, more than eighteen thousand people had been crushed, burned to death, or drowned. It was Japan's greatest single loss of life since the atomic bombing of Nagasaki. It set off a national crisis and the meltdown of Fukushima's nuclearpower plant. And even after the immediate emergency had abated, the trauma of the disaster continued to express itself in bizarre and mysterious ways. Parry, an award-winning foreign correspondent, lived through the earthquake in Tokyo and spent six years reporting from the disaster zone. There he encountered stories of ghosts and hauntings, and met a priest who exorcised the spirits of the dead. And he found himself drawn back again and again to a village that had suffered the greatest loss of all, a community tormented by unbearable mysteries of its own. Ghosts of the Tsunami is an intimate and timeless account of an epic tragedy, told through the stories of those who lived through it. It tells of how a nation faced a catastrophe, and its struggle to find consolation in the ruins.Binding Type: Paperback

Perfection, Or Close to It
Color: Black
I absolutely love this bag! Now that my child is a toddler, I’ve found it easiest to combine my purse and diaper bag into one bag. I no longer need to lug around a huge diaper bag full of bottles, blankets, etc., but I did need enough room to store toddler essentials (a few diapers, a changing pad, wipes, diaper cream, snacks, snack, and more snacks, medicine, a couple of wash cloths, and a toy) plus my essentials (wallet, keys, lotion, lip balm, eye drops, kindle). This has room enough for all of those things without it being an oversized purse or a full sized backpack. A lot of purses will state that they have a lot of different compartments, but the compartments won’t be a size that makes it actually useful, but this purse is different. Each compartment is spacious. Plus, the compartment on the back that’s a secure place for your phone or wallet is actually big enough to store things without having to squeeze it in! If I could give this purse 6 stars, I would. My only qualm is wishing the straps were a different material so that they wouldn’t readjust the size so easily. But if you slide the metal part up toward the decorative leather part of the strap, the leather adds friction and stops it from sliding down.

Beautiful Color
Color: Green
This was a very nice purse. It seemed to be of good quality and I loved the color. I did return it because it was just too big for my tastes and needs. I loved the functionality of it with all the pockets, but didn't want to carry around a backpack sized purse. I would recommend it for anyone who likes large purses. Seller was wonderful to work with.
