Confessions Of A Yakuza: A Life in Japan's Underworld

Author: Junichi Saga

Condition: Like new

Paperback

253 pages

This true crime book details the true story, as told to the doctor who looked after him just before he died, of the life of one of the last traditional yakuza in Japan.

The tale he has to tell presents an honest and oddly attractive picture of an insider in that separate, unofficial world.

And in the end, when his tale is finished, you feel you would probably have liked him if you'd met him in person. Fortunately, Dr. Saga's record of his long conversations with him provides a wonderful substitute for that meeting.
