Haruko’s World: A Japanese Farm Woman and Her Community: with a 1996 Epilogue
Gail Lee Bernstein
In Japan as in the US, family farming is on the wane, increasingly rejected by the younger generation in favor of more promising economic pursuits and comforts. This is a study of Japanese farm women's lives in the present: its central figure is 42-year-old Haruko, a woman who exemplifies and makes a mockery of the stereotype of Japanese women.
