The age gap is icky and I could not get past it. This reads much less like a memoir and more like an informational publication. Some of the cultural stuff was interesting, but overall I didn't really enjoy this read and found it kind of a slog to get through.

There was a lot of information packed in, but it left me feeling a bit scattered (despite how Arai sorted everything into titled chapters).
