Synopsis
Excerpt from Le Japon Moderne: Son Évolution
Quand j'étais arrivé en vue du Japon, j'avais éprouvé une sensation infiniment suave celle d'un nageur qui, après avoir été ballotté longtemps par des vagues glacées, tordu par des courants tourbillonnants et meurtri par le choc de dures épaves, entrerait subitement dans les eaux tièdes et laiteuses d'une rivière aux berges molles comme des lits, et toutes brodées de nénuphars, sous le rideau des gros saules verts où roucouleraient des tourterelles.
