Hokkaido Highway Blues: Hitchhiking Japan by Will Ferguson

3.0

---

I read this for the first time shortly after I moved to Japan 12 years ago. As I was preparing to leave after my long decade-and-a-bit in that amazing-frustrating country, I decided to give it a reread. It's still a good yarn and funny in parts, but wow, Will is much more of an arsehole than I remember him being the first time around. The ego was a bit hard to swallow.
