ISBN: 9780521484350

Ozu's Tokyo Story is generally regarded as one of the finest films ever made. Universal in its appeal, it is also considered to be 'particularly Japanese'. Exploring its universality and cultural specificity, this collection of specially commissioned essays demonstrates the multiple planes on which the film may be appreciated. The introduction outlines Ozu's career as both a contract director of a major studio and as a singular figure in Japanese film history, and also analyses the director's cinematic style, particularly his narrative strategies and spatial compositions. Other essays situate Ozu's cinema in its relationship to Hollywood film-making: his relationship to aspects of Japanese tradition, situating the film within artistic modes, religious systems and beliefs, and socio-cultural and familial formations. Also included is an analysis of how Ozu has been misunderstood in Western criticism.

Whether Margaret Barkley is remembering, reflecting, lamenting or celebrating, the poems in her chapbook, Ribs, express a life acutely observed. "She doesn't mind waiting like a new winter fox with taut muscles at the edge of a rabbit hole." These are poems that tell the truth as she fearlessly investigates the profound predicament of being a fully alive human. -Les Bernstein, Author Margaret Barkley's poems are rich in what it means to be human, with specific individuals and elements from the natural world emerging not only as definitive as an artist's rendition, but by her magic, elevated to the universal. Margaret takes every personal experience and puts it into a new perspective in her poetic world. We, her readers, are the richer for it. -Fran Claggett-Holland, Poet, Teacher, Educational Consultant, Author of four books of poems plus, many books on teaching literature and writing, Founder of The Poetry Collective Margaret Barkley's poetry, always accessible, ranges from the mundane to the sacred. She does not shrink from truth-even when raw-exploring the predicament of living in a body. Her words startle, driving the reader ever deeper. She is, simply, my favorite poet. -Skye Blaine

L.B. Johnson knew how to get things done. She had been immersed in a world of complex puzzles, and tangled story lines of physical and governmental laws. She was quite sure she was up to the task of raising a black Labrador retriever puppy. His name was Barkley, and in being himself, he led his owner down a path of joyful discovery, loving frustration, and self-sacrifice. Their journey together will speak volumes to anyone who has ever had a beloved animal as a heart’s companion…from the gentle nuzzles that healed in moments of crisis, to the saintly patience needed to deal with a small pink ball with feet, named “Mr. Squeaky,” who interrupted many hours of sleep. It is the story of rambunctious trespasses such as “the bacon incident,” and the loving trust that bound a woman and her dog together in unspoken understanding. The Book of Barkley is a tribute and memoir that will resonate with everyone who has reached out unthinking to pet a beloved animal…only to remember that a beloved friend is no longer present. Honest, transcendent, and beautifully written, The Book of Barkley is a love story that will enrich every animal lover’s library.
