Pico Iyer: ‘I Was Turning Japanese’
Travel Blog • Jim Benning • 02.13.08 | 10:27 AM ET
The prolific travel writer reflects on life in Japan and his writing career in a recent Washington Post essay: “Perhaps the greatest beauty of the writing life is that it offers you concrete evidence of all your changes; the pages you write are like those charts nurses place at the end of your bed to map your progress. Whatever you need to know about yourself is there, if only you know how to read it.”
