wow. this blog is brilliant. I grabbed it from Jaime's most recent post. It's a guy writing about being Japanese in Japan in English. His subjects are interesting, his style is charming and his english has that special feel to it that only comes from really capable foreigners.
(I think you know what I mean. The word choice is correct but not what would be natural for you and me. There's a foreign air about it, and it works to defamiliarize the language, and in turn force a bit more analysis.)
Maybe my Japanese will have that special feel someday... but my money's on no.
I'm gonna drop him and marxy and a few other links onto my link list on the right later today.
