Book Description
“A stellar book; an entertaining and vivid look at Japanese pop culture, its globalization, and American encounters with Japan.” —Theodore C. Bestor, author of Tsukiji: The Fish Market at the Center of the World Ever since Godzilla (or, Gojira, as he is known in Japan) crawled out of his radioactive birthplace to cut a swath of destruction through Tokyo, he has claimed a place alongside King Kong and others in the movie monster pantheon. He is the third most recognizable Japanese celebrity in the United States, and his fan base continues to grow as children today prove his enduring appeal. Now, Bill Tsutsui, a life-long fan and historian, takes a light-hearted look at the big, green, radioactive lizard, revealing how he was born and how he became a megastar. With humorous anecdotes, Godzilla on My Mind explores his lasting cultural impact on the world. This book is sure to be welcomed by pop culture enthusiasts, fans, and historians alike. “Godzilla On My Mind is a good read, well written, occasionally provocative and full of facts that show it to be well researched as well as a labour of love.” —Dr. Dolores Martinez, author of The Worlds of Japanese Popular Culture “William Tsutsui’s Godzilla takes a fresh, original, and appealing look at one of our more intriguing pop culture icons. Although informed by careful scholarship, the book is highly accessible. It’s funny, stimulating, and an overall pleasure to read. I’ll never look at Godzilla the same way again!” —Susan Napier, author of Anime from Akira To Princess Mononoke
