Speed Tribes: Days and Night's with Japan's Next Generation

The Bosozoku: Japan's Violent Subcultures is a thought-provoking and eye-opening exploration of the darker aspects of Tokyo's urban society.

Greenfeld, a half-Japanese, half-Caucasian American correspondent for The Nation, delves into the grimier corners of Japanese culture, revealing the seamy underbelly of organized crime, nightclubs, motorcycle gangs, computer hackers, ultra-right-wing nationalists, and the porn industry.

Through vivid storytelling and in-depth profiles of individuals, Greenfeld sheds light on the flaws in Japan's society without resorting to sensationalism or bashing.

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in gaining a more nuanced understanding of Japan and its complexities.
