Since its first publication in 1992, this book has become a curious classic, taking a simple (yet often incorrectly performed) activity and depicting it with a graphic, manga-style edge.
In twelve drawings a young Japanese man is shown preparing, rinsing, soaking, communing, relaxing, contemplating--all an encouragement to readers to slow down, ease into the hot water, and enjoy this timeless ritual of purity and release.
