But as he is the first to admit the country remains an enigma even to its long - term residents. In A Beginner's Guide to Japan Iyer draws on his years of experience his travels conversations readings and reflections to craft a playful and profound book of surprising brief incisive glimpses into Japanese culture. He recounts his adventures and observations as he travels from a meditation hall to a love hotel from West Point to Kyoto Station and from dinner with Meryl Streep to an ill - fated call to the Apple service center in a series of provocations guaranteed to pique the interest and curiosity of those who don t know Japan and to remind those who do of its myriad fascinations.
