Product Information
Whoever takes the time these days to climb a tree in bare feet? To stop and observe the comings and goings of the birds? To play in the puddles after the rain has gone? To return a shell to the sea? The Walking Man follows a modern day Japanese business man as he strolls at random through urban Japan - often silent, usually alone - with his vivid dreams that let time stand still. Every corporate American should have a copy on their desk and, in times of stress, take two chapters, twice a day. Take a little stress out of your life and relax with The Walking Man, a little step every day. Lovingly reversed in collaboration with the creator to read left to right.Product Identifiers

I'm looking forward to more works from Taniguchi." - Derik Badman, Madinkbeard, "The pleasures of [i]The Walking Man[/i] are principally in the form of Taniguchi's careful compositions ...
