The Urban Planetary and Tokyo Modernity

Mehr zum Buch

Exploring the intersection of Japanese modern literature and Kon Wajir's urban ethnography, this book delves into the dynamics of dwelling practices in Tokyo. It emphasizes themes of mobility and affect, highlighting the concept of "accidental beauty" as defined by Wajir. Through this lens, the work presents a speculative genealogy that reveals how these elements shape the experience of urban life in Japan's capital.
