Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Now a hit new HBO Max TV series starring Ansel Elgort, Ken Watanabe & Rachel KellerFrom the only American journalist ever to have been admitted to the insular Tokyo Metropolitan Police Press Club, here is a unique, firsthand, revelatory look at Japanese culture from the underbelly up.At the age of nineteen, Jake Adelstein went to Japan in search of peace and tranquillity. What he got was a life of crime . crime reporting, that is, at the prestigious Yomiuri Shimbun. For twelve years of eighty-hour work weeks, he covered the seedy side of Japan, where extortion, murder, human trafficking, and corruption are as familiar as ramen noodles and sake. But when his final scoop brought him face to face with Japan's most infamous yakuza boss - and with the threat of death for him and his family - Adelstein decided to step down . momentarily. Then, he fought back.In Tokyo Vice, Adelstein tells the riveting, often humorous tale of his transformation from an inexperienced cub reporter to a daring investigative journalist with a price on his head. With its vivid, visceral descriptions of crime in Japan and candid exploration of the world of modern-day yakuza that even few Japanese ever see, Tokyo Vice is a fascination, and an education, from first to last.'Tokyo Vice is about Japanese subculture. Adelstein instructs us in the vagaries of Japanese journalism and provides a gamy, colourful tour of the morally flexible areas of Japan, particularly in Tokyo. He also shows how Japanese police work and interact with journalists. Adelstein shares juicy, salty, and occasionally funny anecdotes, but many are frightening.'-Carlo Wolff, The Boston Globe'Tokyo Vice is the American's gritty, true-to-life account of 12 years on the news beat as a staffer for a Japanese daily - and it is exceptional. Its classic atmospherics rekindle memories of Walter Winchell and Eliot Ness. It's a tale of adrenalin-depleting 80-hour weeks, full ashtrays, uncooperative sources, green tea, hard liquor, and forays into the commercialised depravity of Shinjuku's "adult entertainment zone", Kabukicho. Adelstein, the "morbidly curious" observer, presents his stories with a newsman's objectivity, using self-deprecatory humour, pathos and occasional horror. He does not refrain from harsh criticism, but his writing never condescends . It is a classic piece of 20th-century crime reporting.'-Mark Shrieber, The Japan Times'Tokyo Vice leaps recklessly into this seamy underworld, recounting with verve Adelstein's increasingly perilous investigations. The result is hard-boiled memoir- thrilling, pacy and wise-cracking, but never far from the clammy grip of fear.'-Financial Times For 12 years Jake Adelstein covered the seedy side of Japan, a world of extortion, murder, human trafficking, and corruption. But when it brought him face to face with Japan's most infamous yakuza boss - and the threat of death - he decided to step down, momentarily. Then, he fought back. In Tokyo Vice, he tells the story.

At the centre is a complex protagonist - both jaded and emotionally deep - whose drive and positive impact win respect as he offers, perhaps, something as rare and fascinating as a black pearl, namely the most compelling insider's expose yet of Japan's opaque society.'-Washington Times'Tokyo Vice is about Japanese subculture.

Very few foreigners ever come close to discovering what's really going on in Japan's closed society. Adelstein chases two major stories that pull him into a vortex of destruction, threatening his friendships, his marriage and even his life. As he battles with profound issues concerning truth and trust, Tokyo Vice approaches a heart-pounding denouement. This is a terrifying, deeply moral story which you cannot put down, and Adelstein, if occasionally reckless, is an extremely courageous man.'-Misha Glenny, author of McMafia- a journey through the global criminal underworld Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. The Last Yakuza tells the history of the yakuza like it's never been told before.Makoto Saigo is half-American and half-Japanese in small-town Japan with a set of talents limited to playing guitar and picking fights. With rock stardom off the table, he turns toward the only place where you can start from the bottom and move up through sheer merit, loyalty, and brute force - the yakuza.Saigo, nicknamed Tsunami, quickly realises that even within the organisation, opinions are as varied as they come, and a clash of philosophies can quickly become deadly. One screw-up can cost you your life, or at least a finger.The internal politics of the yakuza are dizzyingly complex, and between the ever-shifting web of alliances and the encroaching hand of the law that pushes them further and further underground, Saigo finds himself in the middle of a defining decades-long battle that will determine the future of the yakuza.Written with the insight of an expert on Japanese organised crime and the compassion of a longtime friend, investigative journalist Jake Adelstein presents a sprawling biography of a yakuza, through postwar desperation, to bubble-era optimism, to the present. Including a cast of memorable yakuza bosses - Coach, the Buddha, and more - this is a story about the rise and fall of a man, a country, and a dishonest but sometimes honorable way of life on the brink of being lost.'Journalist Adelstein parlays decades of reporting on Japanese organised crime into a propulsive history of the yakuza. Drawing on interviews with both his yakuza and Japanese law enforcement contacts, he examines how yakuza groups obtained power . He's especially good at tracing the yakuza's political influence in Japan, explaining how they bribed and blackmailed legislators into opposing bills that would have curbed their influence. Painstakingly reported and paced like a thriller, this is a must read for anyone interested in organised crime.'-Publishers Weekly' T his is great reading for anyone interested in the history and fading lifestyle of Japan's unique brand of mobsters. It's a sweeping narrative of the yakuza on both a macro and personal level, helping the reader understand the whats, whos, and, most importantly, whys of organised crime in Japan . The days of the old world of Japanese organised crime are winding down, but The Last Yakuza proves how much there is to learn from the stories of Japan's shadowy, fading underworld.'-Noah Oskow, Unseen Japan'Adelstein tells Saigo's story with a relish for its comic aspects and an understated feeling for its pathos . one comes away from The Last Yakuza finding its subject not just sympathetic, but even lovable.'-The Telegraph Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Jake Adelstein ist der einzige westliche Journalist, der jemals als Polizeireporter in Japan arbeiten durfte. Er berichtete viele Jahre für die führende japanische Zeitung über die dunkle Seite Japans, wo Erpressung, Mord, Menschenhandel und Korruption ebenso häufig vorkommen wie Ramen-Nudeln und Sake. Doch als er seinen letzten Knüller landen wollte, stand er Japans berüchtigtstem Yakuza-Boss plötzlich persönlich gegenüber. Da ihm und seiner Familie der Tod drohte, gab er auf . . . vorübergehend. Dann schlug er zurück. In »Tokyo Vice« erzählt Jake Adelstein, wie aus einem unerfahrenen Jungreporter dessen Wing-Chun-Kampf mit einem älteren Kollegen nicht sein einziger Anfängerfehler war ein wagemutiger Enthüllungsjournalist wurde, auf den die Yakuza ein Kopfgeld aussetzte. Mit seinen lebendigen, emotionalen Geschichten aus der Welt der modernen Yakuza, von der selbst Japaner wenig wissen, ist »Tokyo Vice« von der ersten bis zur letzten Zeile ein ebenso faszinierendes wie informatives Buch und ein einzigartiger, aufschlussreicher Bericht aus erster Hand über die Schattenseiten der japanischen Kultur. 380 pp. Deutsch.

Paperback. Zustand: New. New; Nesta reportagem de tirar o fôlego, o jornalista americano Jake Adelstein traz à tona o submundo do crime japonês e revela uma Tóquio desconhecida, soturna e ameaçadora, que vive sob a ameaça da yakuza. Livro que inspirou a série Tokyo Vice.Quando se mudou para o Japão, aos dezenove anos, Jake Adelstein buscava tranquilidade em um templo budista. Seu destino foi outro: repórter inexperiente que mal dominava o idioma do país, acabou sendo o primeiro jornalista estrangeiro contratado por um grande jornal japonês. No caderno de polícia, ganhou acesso a um mundo desconhecido do Ocidente e até dos próprios japoneses.Em Tóquio proibida, Adelstein narra em ritmo de thriller os doze anos que passou no jornal, investigando casos de sequestro, pornografia infantil, extorsão e tráfico de órgãos. Por trás de tudo, paira a sombra da yakuza, a poderosa máfia japonesa.Explorando as relações da yakuza com o governo, Adelstein depara com uma história de repercussões internacionais, envolvendo um chefão poderoso - o que lhe rende uma ameaça de morte e o faz mergulhar num jogo de corrupção, intrigas e mistérios, digno dos grandes romances policiais."Feroz, sagrada, profissional: Adelstein descreve a máfia japonesa como ninguém." Roberto Saviano, autor de Gomorra; 456 pages.
